Bicycles are permitted on all public roads within the park when traveling with the flow of traffic. Please use caution on the roads, especially on those with little or no shoulder. Watch for loose sand and gravel in some areas.

Bicycles, including mountain bikes, are not permitted on trails within Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore. They are also not permitted on the access road to the Au Sable Lighthouse.

E-bikes (cyles with fully operable pedals and an electric motor of less than 750 watts or 1 HP) are allowed in the national lakeshore where traditional bicycles are allowed. E-bikes are prohibited where traditional bicycles are prohibited.

The nearby Hiawatha National Forest and Grand Island National Recreation Area offer many opportunties for trail and mountain biking as well as paved roads suitable for road biking.

A single track trail system exists in the hills above the town of Munising. Contact the Alger County Chamber of Commerce for more information.
