Iowa Bike Trails, Bicycle Guidebooks, and Trail Maps

Iowa bike trails provide a great escape into the heartland of America. Iowa is known for its flat farm land, but bikers know that Iowa's rolling hills provide for great biking. Lakes, rivers, and other wetlands add diversity to the terrain. Take a mountain bike out to a river bend, around a lake, or along the caves. Iowa offers diverse biking terrain. And for you road bikers, Iowa offers some great roads and trails. Plus, join thousands each year for the Register's Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa, affectionately known as RAGBRAI. Browse through the trails below to find more information about bike trails in Iowa. And of course, enjoy your ride.

You should also be aware of the bicycle shops and bike dealers where you travel just in case you need to pick up some new gear. For a list of Iowa bike shops and dealers, please visit the Iowa Bike Shops page on US Bike Trails.
