A bike path is a designated route specifically designed for cyclists. These paths can be found in urban areas, parks, and along scenic routes, providing a safe space for biking away from motor vehicle traffic. Bike paths can vary in surface materials, including asphalt, concrete, or gravel, and are often marked with signs to guide cyclists. Many bike paths are part of larger networks that connect to other routes, making it easier for cyclists to travel longer distances. They promote outdoor activity and can enhance community health by encouraging more people to ride bicycles, reducing reliance on cars and contributing to environmental sustainability.
