Crater Lake's Ride the Rim bike event is a must-do for Oregon cyclists

If you’re up for the challenge, biking around Crater Lake’s scenic Rim Drive is arguably one of the best cycling routes in the state. Even sweeter, the road is almost entirely closed to vehicle traffic for two days every summer.

This week on Peak Northwest podcast, co-host Vickie Connor chats about participating in Ride the Rim 2024 and why the trip is a perfect end cap to your bike summer.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

Why participating in the annual free event is a more fun and supported way of doing this ride.

How far and difficult the full ride is.

Opting for a mid-ride cliff jump into the lake is almost always a good idea.

Lodging options in the area.

You may even have a bear cub sighting.
