Ukuhamba-hamba
Bike your way around Garden City -- 5.2 miles of paved paths
It may be a small town, but Garden City only has a couple main roads and traffic can get pretty backed up. Bring your bike or rent one from Epic Recreation and cruise your way around along the 5.2 miles of paved paths that run from the north end of Garden City by the Bear Lake State Park marina all the way south to the public beach past Pickleville.
