Cycling in Port Moody, BC
Port Moody offers useful cycling possibilities for riders interested in Burrard Inlet scenery and Tri-Cities cycling connections, especially when the trip is planned around the region's established route network. In the wider Metro Vancouver area, the riding character is shaped by urban bikeways, greenways and regional connections. Conditions vary from flat river lowlands to steep North Shore hills, so the official cycling map matters more than straight-line distance.

How to plan the ride
If you are visiting Port Moody for the first time, start with the most separated, signed or trail-based option that fits your bike, then add road mileage only after checking the current local map. Weather, construction, wildfire conditions, seasonal maintenance and trail closures can change quickly in B.C., so confirm the latest official notice on the day you ride.
Before you ride
- Check TransLink's current local cycling map before choosing a route.
- Use transit to shorten one-way rides or bypass uncomfortable road sections where permitted.
B.C. cycling rules still apply: obey traffic controls, ride in the permitted direction, use required lights and reflectors after dark, and wear an approved bicycle helmet. On shared paths, slow down around people walking, dogs, children and other riders; local bylaws or park rules may add extra restrictions.
