ニューブランズウィック周辺のおすすめ交通量の少ないサイクリングルート

A long, mostly level multi-use route that traces the quiet corridor of the Nashwaak River on Fredericton’s north side. The compacted-gravel surface makes it easy to walk, run, or cycle, and the trail moves between shaded woodland, open stretches, and short riverside clearings. Views of the Nashwaak appear steadily along the way, especially near bridge crossings and wider bends in the river. The trail takes its name from the Nashwaak River itself, derived from the Wolastoqey (Maliseet) word Nekawäk—often interpreted as “slow current” or “still water,” a fitting description of the calm, steady flow that defines this part of the valley.

A riverfront green space along the Saint John River, offering open views across the water toward downtown Fredericton. The park features a wide, level pathway suitable for walking, running, and cycling, with plenty of lawn area and benches along the shoreline.

Major Kollock Creek Trail is a forest singletrack linking the Petit-Larg campsite area with the Major Kollock Creek parking lot. The route follows mixed woodland with short rises and boardwalk crossings over wetter sections near the creek. It’s suitable for both hiking and mountain biking, with mostly narrow trail tread and a few roots in places. Expect a quiet forest setting, occasional views of the creek, and links to wider Kouchibouguac trail networks. Watch out for bikers along the singletrack sections, especially where visibility is lower.

Kouchibouguac’s beach sits on a barrier island reached by designated access paths. The shoreline is long and open, with firm sand and wide tidal zones. It’s suitable for walking and running, and in calm weather you’ll see uninterrupted views along the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The dunes and protected piping plover habitat nearby are signed, so stay on marked paths when connecting the beach to your route.

An elevated viewpoint overlooking the forest, wetlands, and barrier-island system that defines Kouchibouguac National Park. The view highlights how the park shifts from inland woods to saltmarsh, lagoons, and the long sandspit that shelters the coast. A useful stop for orienting yourself, as a large portion of the park’s protected landscapes can be seen in one place.

In the heart of Fredericton is Odell Park. It spans 333 acres of forested preserve, old-growth hemlock, and features walking trails, facilities, and gardens. The park offers about 16 km of trails that welcome hiking, running, and cross-country skiing in winter. There are many options for which trail to take, including the main loop and many trails in and out of it.

Great bike infrastructure to cross downtown Fredericton

Nice gravel trail along the river. One area was washed out when we were there, but it looks like it had recently flooded.
