This article explains how to view and customize bike routes on Google Maps, which has collected a huge amount of data on bike lanes, trails, and bike-friendly streets. Instructions apply to Google Maps on desktop and the Google Maps mobile app for iOS and Android.
How to find bike routes with Google Maps
Choosing a cycling route is as simple as selecting the Cycling option as the map mode instead of another option you may be familiar with, such as the Driving or Walking option.
Choose a starting location. Do this by typing a location into the search box or by right-clicking anywhere on the map and choosing Directions from here.
Do the same for the destination: choose Directions Here from the right-click menu or type an address in the destination box.
