Best Places to Bike in Steveston

A local guide to easy waterfront rides, village stops, parks, dyke trails, and scenic places to visit by bike around Steveston, Richmond.

Guide overview

Some riders want a short village loop, while others want a longer afternoon with more open space, food stops, and more time on the dyke trails. Pick the places first so the ride feels more intentional and less like guesswork after pickup.

Steveston is one of the easier places in Richmond to explore by bike. A good ride usually includes one easy park stop, one village stop, and enough time left over to keep the day relaxed.

    London Farm and Finn Slough

    A heritage farm and a tiny stilt-house fishing community — the quiet, local side of Steveston, farther out along the river.

  6. 06

    West Dyke Trail toward Terra Nova

    Wide open sky, marshland, and big Richmond views on flat, easy riding. From the shop, riding north toward the airport and back is about a 2-hour round trip at a sightseeing pace.
