Los Angeles River bicycle path, Class I bicycle path in the Greater Los Angeles area
The Los Angeles River bicycle path is a dedicated cycling route running alongside the river through California. The trail features a flat, paved surface with separate lanes for pedestrians and cyclists throughout its length.
The path emerged from a river restoration project aimed at converting the waterway into public parkland. Development of the route was part of a broader effort to revitalize the river corridor over time.
The route is easy to navigate and suitable for riders of all levels because of its flat terrain and regular access points. Multiple entry and exit points make it easy to choose shorter sections that fit your schedule.
The path cuts through multiple neighborhoods, showing how different communities have shaped the riverfront in their own way. Each section has its own character, from tree-lined parks to open urban spaces.
