How To Enjoy Sacramento Bicycle Tours And Getaways

By Rosalind Estes


The state capitol of California is easy to explore by taking one of dozens of Sacramento bicycle tours. The city has mostly flat terrain, which is perfect for those looking for a more family oriented experience. They will also find more challenging routes for anyone wanting a workout adventure.

The city is one of the most historic in the entire state. The first nuggets that started the gold rush were found just lying on the ground at Sutter's Mill, about forty miles east. Prospectors who flocked to the area to strike it rich helped build Sacramento.

The state is known for its natural wonders, and there are many state parks to visit that help provide recreation for both locals and tourists. Picnic tables and restroom facilities are plentiful and easy to find. Each park has its own unique character.

The city is built along river deltas, which flow all the way to the San Francisco Bay. There are many trails built on levees right along the river. There are also bridges built only to allow pedestrians or bikes.

Although it is a major metropolitan area in its own right, the city also has several nearby wetlands. Wildlife can easily be seen from the bike routes. Animals of all kinds flock to the area because of its mild climate and sources of food.

Visitors who want to see more of the countryside can visit vineyards in the nearby Delta Wine region. Like other wine producing areas, this one produces wines with their own unique tastes and flavors. The local roads often have clearly marked bike routes.

Tourists who want to slow down, in order to more fully enjoy their vacation in the Golden State, may want to plan on taking Sacramento Bicycle tours. They can travel at their own pace, and visit the areas less travelled. There are also excursions available for larger families or groups.
