Also known as the Willamette River Trail, this paved bike path loops the Willamette River as it flows through Eugene. The path can be easily chunked into smaller sections for shorter, easier rides. Along the route there are children's play areas, restrooms, ducks, gardens and park and wildlife.
The North Bank Path (5 miles) which passes the BMX Track, the Eugene Science Center and winds through Alton Baker Park is a favorite. Hungry child? Take a break for lunch at McMeniman's North Bank riverfront restaurant with outside patio seating. Or ride over to the Valley River Center mall to choose from their food courts.
The South Bank Path (4 miles) passes the Owen Rose Garden and the RiverPlay Discover Village Playground at Skinner Butte Park. Use one of the five bike bridges along the trail to create a small loop ride. My child loves all the playground possibilities along this ride which can make for a longer afternoon!
