Biking, Hiking and Driving the Assateague Island National Seashore

Bicycles are one of the best ways to take in nature. They’re quiet enough to not disturb most wildlife, fast enough to make a journey of quite a few miles feasible during the course of a day but not so fast that they cause tourists to miss anything. The Assateague Island National Seashore has some of the best nature biking trails on the east coast, many of them paved, which makes touring here on a mountain bike easy and fun.

If you want to get an even more close-up view of the natural surroundings, there are miles of hiking trails as well. The National Park Service recommends bringing durable boots and bug repellent. The Island is a humid climate and that can mean the mosquitoes can be thick at times. The natural beauty, however, far overshadows any inconveniences caused by the bugs.

For those who really want a fast-paced adventure, the Assateague Island National Seashore is one of the best areas around for over-sand vehicle cruising. It requires a permit, available from the National Park Service and, of course, some consideration for the natural environment.
