Aberdeen and Hoquiam will provide the most grocery shopping
opportunities. Grocery stores are also in McCleary, Elma,
Montesano, Ocean Shores, and Westport. Other locations
marked with the grocery symbol on our map are smaller stores.
You want dirt? We’ve got plenty of it! Established single track
trails are in many areas in Grays Harbor County. The dotted red
line shows their locations. On the flip side of this map you will
find more detailed maps for off-road riding. Also popular with
mountain bikers are the hundreds of miles of gravel and dirt
logging roads that criss-cross the remote hills in the county. US
Forest Service lands are open to all, as are State Department of
Resources lands. Private timber lands are open in some areas
and paid permits required in others. For private timber lands
please consult with the landowners for access.

The Thru Bike Routes have been carefully planned with our local
knowledge to provide you the best routes for traversing the

Use the detail map (above) to navigate the congested
downtown core areas of Aberdeen and Hoquiam. There are few
bike lanes and road shoulders are inconsistent. We believe our
route, sometimes on sidewalks, may provide the safest way to
traverse the cities.
Lake Sylvia State Park near Montesano provides quiet lakeside
camping. Bicycle only campsites also available.

These towns are the heart of Grays Harbor County. Situated
on the shore of Grays Harbor there is a thriving Port and other
industry, much of it dependent on the lifeblood of the Harbor,
timber. The area is rich in history. Acquaint yourself with the
fascinating stories of the past at one of the local museums. If
you are a Nirvana fan, you may be interested in Kurt Cobain
Memorial Park, on the muddy banks of the Wishkah.
