8-Day Cycling Itinerary

The Island Walk is great for cycling and e-biking too! The route is a mix of the Confederation Trail (a rolled stone dust and hard-packed surface with gentle grades – no more than 2%), red clay roads, and quiet roads. A hybrid or gravel bike is recommended for the mix of surfaces you’ll encounter. Along the way you’ll pass red sand cliffs, lighthouse sunsets, and endless coastal views.

We’ve put together this free 8-day cycling itinerary for you. All that’s left for you is to pack your bags and book the accommodations!

This 8-day loop takes you through over 30 communities, with overnight stops in Summerside, Miminegash, Tyne Valley, Brackley, St. Peter’s, Souris, Murray Harbour, and back to Charlottetown where you started.

This itinerary is just one way to ride the Island Walk, not the only one. If you’d rather build a route around your own timeline or preferred daily distance, visit our app at theislandwalk.app, where you can create a custom itinerary tailored to how many days you have or how far you want to ride each day! Explore the rest of our website for additional planning information theislandwalk.ca

Enter your name and email below to get the full day-by-day PDF itinerary, with distances, stops, meals, and accommodation options for every night of the ride emailed right to your inbox!
