    Tips

    The traffic on Route 236 is certainly lighter than Route 9, but don't expect it to be deserted. Big Basin is a pretty popular park, and this road is its main artery. The road is narrower than Route 9, but its surface is still smooth and comfortable.

      This road can be wet even when every other road is dry. If you keep that in mind the ride is fantastic, its usually cooler under the trees and the pavement is in great condition. For a longer ride if you drop down to the park HQ you get a nice ride back up the hill.
