Exit the train with your bike in City of North Bay, also known as the Gateway to the North.

North Bay is situated on the shorelines of Lake Nipissing (the fourth largest lake in Ontario) and Trout Lake within city limits. With lakes and natural areas so close at hand your choices of recreational and sporting activities are vast.

Access a number of excellent cycle routes and trails, short distance and within the city, or long distance across the region.
