Bike Fairfax Map

The Bike Fairfax Interactive Map displays the same useful information found on the printed version of the Fairfax County Bicycle Map in an interactive online format. The map can be viewed on a smart phone without an app; simply click on the image of the map above and it is ready to use! Please note, this map currently does not include the 2023 updates. Also, this is not a live map and does not reflect real-time conditions. For the most current road and construction information, please visit VDOT's Virginia Traffic Information.

Choose Your Route

For Beginners and Families: Paved trails and quiet neighborhood streets, shown in purple and green respectively, are the most pleasant places to ride, and are fun for users of all ages and abilities. Enjoy a family ride to the park or bike to your nearby ice cream shop. Have fun, relax and enjoy the ride!

Suitable for Most Adults: Routes shown in blue are still comfortable for most adults, but may not be suitable for young children due to slightly higher traffic volumes. Some of these roads have bike lanes, ride-able shoulders or shared lane markings.

For Experienced Cyclists: Only people with significant riding experience would feel comfortable on most orange routes, where riders can expect to interact with more and faster motor vehicles. These routes can be very congested during peak hours, but experience low traffic volumes at other times. Routes shown in dark gray are busy arterials or narrow, winding country roads, and are not suitable for the average cyclist. Experienced cyclists should use these roads with caution. Some of the arterials have wide shoulders or bike lanes. Less confident riders should:

  • look for a parallel trail or green neighborhood route; 2020 Bike Map Thumbnail
  • ride on the sidewalk when there is no alternative available (which is legal, but ride with traffic if possible and use caution at driveways - drivers may not expect you); or
  • find a bus to continue your trip (bikes can be loaded on bike racks in front).
