Northern Tier Bicycle Route - 10: Orchard Park, New York - Ticonderoga, New York - 421 Miles

From Orchard Park northward into Buffalo you will experience urban riding conditions so ride defensivly. A nicely paved but poorly signed bike path extends from the Buffalo Naval Park to the Peace Bridge, which takes you into Canada. The Peace Bridge is an easy crossing, and the route continues on a bike path along the Niagara River. You'll pass Niagara Falls, then cross back into the U.S.

At Lockport, the route follows 90 miles of the Erie Canalway Trail before heading toward Lake Ontario. The route then heads east into the Adirondack Mountains. The terrain is hilly and passes many lakes and tourist spots. The endpoint is Ticonderoga which is located right on the Hudson River.

ABOUT ADVENTURE CYCLING MAPS
Adventure Cycling maps are created by cyclists, for cyclists, and they are some of the best available for those in search of discovery and adventure in North America. The maps reflect the association's research as well as suggestions from thousands of cyclists who have explored the Adventure Cycling Route Network. Adventure Cycling develops the best cross-country, loop, coastal, and inland cycling routes available, with turn-by-turn directions, detailed navigational instructions for the tricky sections, and elevation profiles in the high country.

The maps are waterproof and designed to fit in a handlebar-bag window or jersey pocket. The maps provide information specifically for cyclists: the location of bike shops, sources for food and water, and listings of overnight accommodations including camping facilities, small hotels, and cyclists-only lodging.
