The route actually begins in a city park located on a bay on the north end of the city and travels along the coastal bike path before entering the Portland old harbor area. You then cross the river (bike lanes on the bridge) to the south shore.
Typical of your New England Bicycle Tour quiet roads greet the cyclist as you visit various coves piled high with lobster traps, and see elegant homes lining the route.
The highlight is the wide variety of lighthouses you see which are found in local parks, the harbor area and on side trips along the peninsula. They are also featured in the video above.
