From rugged mountain bike trails to relaxed Valley cruises and guided e-bike tours, Yosemite Mariposa County offers a variety of ways to explore on two wheels. Bring your own bike or rent one locally and discover the landscape at your own pace.

In Yosemite Valley, bike rentals are available during the warmer months, making it easy to enjoy more than 12 miles of paved, mostly flat bike paths. The popular 12-mile loop typically takes about two hours to complete and offers an easy, scenic way to experience iconic Valley views. Rental options include small bikes and trailers for children, as well as tandem and hand-crank bikes for visually or physically impaired riders.

Beyond Yosemite National Park, you’ll find outstanding mountain biking in the foothills and surrounding National Forest lands. For example, explore Exchequer Mountain Bike Park, featuring bike-only trails built and maintained specifically for mountain bikers, with scenic overlooks of Lake McClure. Or enjoy a scenic ride through Stockton Creek Preserve just behind the town of Mariposa.

For an added boost, guided Yosemite E-Biking tours combine pedal-assist technology with expert interpretation, allowing riders to comfortably cover more ground while exploring Yosemite Mariposa County.
