5 Biking Trails in Spokane That You Shouldn't Miss

October 16, 2021 Chanda Heide

A mixture of urban chic and outdoor adventures, Spokane has something for everyone. Taste food by James-Beard-nominated chefs at Sante or The Wandering Table. Listen to live music at The Bartlett or the symphony at the iconic Martin Woldson Theater at The Fox. Glide over the breathtaking Spokane Falls, situated right downtown, in the SkyRide, rated as one of the world’s best gondolas. Kids can feed the Garbage-Eating Goat or slide down the giant Radio Flyer Red Wagon in Riverfront Park.

Centennial Trail

This 40 mile paved, car-free trail bordering the beautiful Spokane River has something for everyone: running, hiking, biking, horseback riding and canoeing. The Spokane River Centennial Trail is the backbone of the recreational trail system in eastern Washington and north Idaho, welcoming over 2.5 million users annually.

We rode parts of the Centennial Trail both East and west of Spokane oh, and all of it was wonderful. The entire trail is composed of different geographic regions, along both sides of the Spokane River running through downtown Spokane and all the way to the Idaho state line. Some of it is flat, the downtown area is very crowded with lots of bridges. The route on the west of downtown is beautiful, but very hilly and only for folks in good condition! The rest of the trail is suitable for even small children or the elderly. This is a great Trail so we highly recommend it, along with the Route of the Coeur d'Alenes and the Route of the Hiawatha in Idaho next door. We drove 300 miles just to bike these three routes!!!

Downtown Spokane

A pleasant bike ride through downtown Spokane: this 9.2-mile trail runs past some of Spokane's historical sites, like Browne's Addition neighborhood and Riverfront Park.

I work in and around downtown and have always love the charm of this small town/big city. So many favorite shops and of course, Riverfront Mall and Park!

Palisades Park

Reviewed By andrewbmusic - Tumwater, United States

Best way to recover from a horrible night at a hotel that doesnt have your 15 room reservatuon at midnight is to run. Headed off down the road to find this beauty. Palisades is managed by some community close. Beautiful open trail, historical markers, views of downtown Spokane. Just a mile or two from airport hotels, the Palisades is a great gettaway. Got both an overcast view (day 1) and the clear view (day 2). But it was exciting to find this diamond in the rough.
