Biking

At Neal Smith National Wildlife Refuge

Bicycling is a wonderful way to see the refuge. Bike lanes are located along the refuge's 4.5 paved entry road, Pacific Street, open year-round from sunrise to sunset. Biking is prohibited along the refuge's four walking trails. Remember that the road may be snow packed, wet or uneven due to gravel; please ride slowly and be aware of traffic.
