Walla Walla Cycling & Mountain Biking

Pedal through Walla Walla

Beloved for the rural farm roads that meander through rolling wheat fields, Walla Walla is celebrated as Washington’s top road cycling destination. The nearby Blue Mountains offer experienced riders steep climbs and sharp turns to attack, while the flatlands and paved trails that run through Walla Walla’s historic neighborhoods and farmlands are perfect for when you just want to cruise.

This cyclist-friendly community has, well, a lot of cyclists. No need to worry about riding alone when in town; you’ll find plenty of company. Local cyclists are happy to show you routes, invite you on a ride, make dining suggestions, point out their favorite wineries and help you fix a flat. And they won’t stop talking about the great cycling here.

Walla Walla’s two excellent bicycle shops, Allegro Cyclery and the Bicycle Barn, lead rides throughout the week. Check both sites for the most up to date info.

Puncturevine (aka Goathead) Warning:
Puncturevine grows in the Walla Walla area and it’s known to cause flat tires for cyclists. If you see any growing along a bicycle route, please feel free to report it to the City of Walla Walla at: parks@wallawallawa.gov

Have fun and remember, rubber side down!
