Can I combine a backcountry trip with a bicycle ride on the park road?
A. Combining bicycles with the backcountry can be quite difficult, but such trips are manageable with adequate planning. All bicyclists must follow the bicycle rules of the road and must leave their bike at a campground or rest stop (specifically at Savage, Sanctuary, Teklanika, Toklat, or Wonder Lake) where it can be locked up while they are in the backcountry. No bikes are allowed trails. We strongly recommend that bicyclists be as prepared as all hikers in terms of gear and equipment. The high brush and often difficult terrain makes hiking without a backpack impractical, so those who wish to combine biking with backcountry should be prepared to transport a pack while biking.
