Experience the Wildwoods ‘Bikeability’

The Wildwoods’ nearly six-mile bike path is just one of many ways to enjoy biking in the Wildwoods

Bike riding is a favorite past time at the Jersey Shore, and no town seems to do biking better than the Wildwoods. The Wildwoods have coined the word ‘Bikeability’ to capture all of the amazing biking opportunities throughout the destination.. There is no better way to recharge, get physical exercise and enjoy the ocean breezes (plus it’s a great way to work off some of the delicious meals you have enjoyed while visiting the resort!)

Bicycle Routes

From a lengthy and scenic bike path, to bike lanes along popular roads, to biking along the boardwalk, there are many ways to enjoy the Wildwoods on two wheels. Bike and surrey rentals also abound, in case you’re unable to bring your own bicycles to the destination.

A FREE bike route runs nearly the entire length of the five-mile island, beginning at Rambler Road in Wildwood Crest. The bike path stretches from the Wildwood Crest Dunes Bike Path, up onto the Wildwoods Boardwalk to North Wildwood’s Mulberry Bike Path, to the North Wildwood Sea Wall. This route allows Wildwoods vacationers the option of a leisurely, or athletic, bike ride throughout the island.

A special ‘bikes only’ lane is dedicated to cyclists in North Wildwood along some of its major thoroughfares, from 1st to 26th avenues along Surf Avenue and on the North Wildwood Sea Wall. This lane allows cyclists to safely share the road with traffic pedestrians.

An early morning bike ride along the 2.5-mile boardwalk is a must for many. Bicycles and surreys are permitted until noon daily along the scenic stretch. It’s the perfect way to watch the sun rise over the ocean and take in the morning’s fresh sea breeze.

Bicycle Rentals
Don’t worry if you had to leave your bikes at home to make room for your beach chairs! Bikes and associated equipment can be rented at reasonable rates from many bike shops throughout the Wildwoods – and most open at 6 a.m. for those interested in a Boardwalk biking excursion! Many rental places also offer other cycling vehicles for biking in groups, such as tandem bikes and surreys. No matter what you’re looking for, the many convenient bike rental shops throughout the Wildwoods will be sure to give you exactly what you need!
