글렌 카운티 최고의 사이클링 경로

A truly amazing canyon, easily accessible from Chico. In spring, it's a wildflower explosion. There are several trails. Long pants are a plus, as there are rattlesnakes. It's still worth it!! The basalt rock through which the river flows has a special name: Lovejoy Basalt. It looks a bit like Krog from the Marvel Comics.

There are some trees right here that drop big round seed pods during certainly seasons, and they can be hazardous for bicycle handling.

The new Esplanade Bike Path ends here as of 1/25/2025. Construction will continue and complete the path up to the Airport Bike Path at a later date. Take care while riding on the path during certain seasons, as big round tree seed pods on the ground can be hazardous for bicycle handling.

The widening project includes a bike path running alongside Bruce Road. This path is not paved yet, but it should be a good bicycle route when it's complete. There still needs to be protected intersections/roundabouts, so that the road junctions can provide world class safety, but the city hasn't implemented protections here at this time.

This man-made lake takes its name from its U-shape, although it is not so evident when the water level is low. The waters are calm and often offer nice reflections. Beware of ticks in the area!

There is a parking area and viewing area here at the cliffs overlooking Big Chico Creek. The trails heading down to the water are best done on foot, but the views from the parking lot are still great.
