Starting at Eco City Park in the City of Canby, this 71 mile intermediate route has something for everyone – low-traffic country roads, small towns with vibrant main streets, wild rivers and a constantly changing landscape. Between Canby and the City of Molalla enjoy riding past apple orchards, wineries and the undulating farmland of the Willamette Valley. Further south the ride connects to one of Mt. Hood Territory’s hidden gems- the Molalla Recreation Corridor, a Bureau of Land Management area with campgrounds, hiking, picnicking and more. The Molalla River in this area is a true wild Cascadian river that was never dammed or diverted. Bicycle along unique basalt and lava outcrops along the Molalla River as it makes its way to the Willamette Valley Floor.
