Fish Creek Bike Path
What to Expect
Safety Advisory
This is bear country even on paved paths — make noise and carry bear spray. The creek corridor is a wildlife travel route, and surprise encounters happen on quiet stretches where forest limits sightlines.

Combine this with a morning drive up Camas Road — the path makes a great warm-up or cool-down bookend to the scenic drive, and the parking area near the Lower McDonald Creek Bridge rarely fills up the way Going-to-the-Sun Road lots do.

Bring a bike if you have one — this path was built for cycling and the flat terrain means even rental cruisers handle it fine. The Fish Creek Campground area sometimes has bike rentals available through concessioners.

Walk to the creek's edge near the bridge for some of the best colored-rock-under-clear-water photography in the park. Late afternoon light filtering through the cedars turns the water gold and teal.
