Atlantic County Bikeway (ACB)

The Atlantic County Bikeway Loop offers a delightful road cycling experience, transitioning from coastal development to the serene New Jersey Pinelands. You'll glide along a smooth, 10-foot-wide asphalt path, much of it a former rail trail, enjoying varied scenery that includes glimpses of the Great Egg Harbor River and the Estell Manor Park Wildlife Management area. This route is predominantly flat, making it an easy and enjoyable ride for cyclists of all levels.

Planning your ride is simple, as there are no permits or fees required to access the bikeway. You can easily find parking at various points along the loop, which is well-suited for road bikes. While the route is accessible year-round, consider visiting in the spring or fall for the most pleasant weather conditions, allowing you to fully appreciate the changing landscapes.

This 45.3-mile (72.8 km) loop, with a minimal 279 feet (85 metres) of elevation gain, is rated moderate and typically takes about 2 hours and 58 minutes to complete. It's a fantastic option for those seeking a longer, yet relaxed, ride through a mix of environments, offering a unique blend of natural beauty and local history through its former rail corridor.
