The Shore Tour North cycling route offers a delightful journey along the New Jersey coastline, perfect for those who appreciate a blend of natural beauty and seaside charm. You'll pedal past the calm waters of Lake Takanassee and Wesley Lake, eventually reaching views of the expansive Atlantic Ocean near Point Pleasant Beach. The terrain is mostly smooth, though some parts of the Henry Hudson Trail might have minor bumps from tree roots, adding a varied feel to the ride.
This moderate touring cycling route covers 22.4 miles (36.0 km) with a minimal 199 feet (61 metres) of elevation gain, typically taking about 2 hours and 1 minutes. Parking is usually easy to find in the coastal towns along the way, but if you're planning to cycle during peak season, an early start is advisable to beat the crowds. Be mindful of roadway crossings and potential commuter traffic on some on-road sections.
What makes the Shore Tour North notable is its seamless integration of dedicated cycle paths and on-road segments, connecting various parts of the shore. It incorporates sections of the Henry Hudson Trail, a former railroad right-of-way, providing a unique historical and natural context. This route offers a distinctive way to experience the vibrant atmosphere and scenic viewpoints of New Jersey's coastal communities.
