MEMPHIS OUTD O ORS By Cara Greenstein
BIKE IT! As we’ve reemerged into a new season, we continue to find value in new routes, paths, and outdoor resources across Memphis. Let Discover Memphis Naturally be your guide this summer. Put away the Peloton. With over 300 miles of on- and off-road bike paths in the area, it’s time to get out and explore. Enjoy a ride through Shelby Farms Park on the 5.6-mile Tour de Wolf mountain biking trail. The path winds its way between oak forests and expansive, open fields and grasslands. Ride over Big River Crossing to the Big River Trail to traverse the flood plains of Arkansas and let the levees be your guide. If you’re without a bike, Shelby Farms Park offers rentals to for your journey. Explore Bike Share just rolled out pedal-assist eBikes to take for a loop around Hyde Lake or on the Shelby Farms Greenline.
