Lite-Worthy Trails

What are your favorite places to explore? With countless resources to discover new biking trails from coast to coast, it can sometimes be overwhelming to narrow down a trail that best suites your needs and interests. Trail search engines, online articles, and referrals are great ways to find you perfect path.

When searching for new trails, there are a couple of resources that our team suggests turning to. AllTrails and TrailLink are great search engines to use when looking for routes in a specific state, city, or county. For eBike-specific trail recommendations, Wired, Electric Bike Review, and Electrek all have helpful articles highlighting industry favorites!  

Best of all, referrals from a friend are awesome for discovering new trails. Our team here at Lectric is lucky to encompass wonderful people from all over the US. We asked them where their favorite trails were, and the responses were plentiful!

Check out the list below for our crew's favorite trails. We know that this is only inclusive of a select few states and regions that our team is partial to, but let us know where your favorite trails are by mentioning us on FacebookInstagram, or TikTok!
