The Northern Strand and East Coast Greenway Loop is an easy 25.8 miles (41.5 km) racebike route, perfect for a relaxed outing. You'll experience a gentle ride with only 594 feet (181 metres) of elevation gain, typically completed in about 1 hours and 50 minutes. As you cycle, you'll pass through diverse landscapes, from urban areas to natural reserves, offering a varied and engaging experience.
This route is largely flat and paved, making it very accessible for road cyclists. While much of the trail is car-free, be aware that some sections, particularly when passing through urban areas like Malden and Lynn, involve street crossings. These intersections can briefly interrupt the continuous pathway, so stay alert for traffic. The smooth asphalt surface ensures a comfortable ride throughout.
One of the highlights of this loop is the opportunity to cycle alongside the Malden and Mystic Rivers, especially towards its southern end, providing pleasant waterside views. You'll also traverse the Rumney Marsh Reservation, a significant salt marsh known for its birdwatching opportunities, and catch glimpses of coastal areas as the trail extends towards Lynn.
