Best Bike Paths for All Ages

From training-wheel loops to long rides along the Red — the best family bike paths in Fargo-Moorhead, by difficulty.

The metro's paved trail network is genuinely good and mostly flat — ideal for kids just getting their pedals under them.

Dad Tip

Helmets always, and pack a multi-tool — a dropped chain shouldn't end the ride. If you're riding with a new pedaller, start on the park loops rather than the river corridor: the trail is flat but it's shared with faster commuter traffic.
