Squamish by e-bike: good stops and time outside
A coffee downtown. A little time beside the water. Lunch somewhere you’ve been meaning to try. An e-bike gives you room to explore Squamish at your own pace, with plenty of reasons to stop along the way.
This InFlow guide brings together ten local businesses, the estuary and the trails around the golf course. Choose a few stops or make a longer day of it. You don’t need to visit every business to have a good ride.
Start and finish at InFlow’s Squamish oceanfront base. Before you leave, we’ll help you choose a plan that fits your rental time, battery range and riding confidence.

Choose your ride
Oceanfront and downtown
Start with the oceanfront around House of Lager, then head into downtown for Fox & Oak, Peak Provisions and Green Olive. The Broken Seal sits on the waterfront side of Loggers Lane and can work well later in the day, depending on opening hours. Add an estuary nature break before heading back to InFlow.
A longer ride north
From downtown, use the signed local cycling network and the Corridor Trail as your north–south backbone. Make side trips to A-FRAME and Backcountry Brewing in the business park, then continue towards Cloudburst Cafe on Mamquam Road. Ride the public trails around the golf course, then carry on to Hop Creek Farms and Brackendale Art Gallery if you have time and battery for the return.
Use marked crossings where your ride meets Highway 99. Plan the ride back before you head farther north; stop choices, weather and time spent eating all change the length of the day.

A little more time outside
A · Estuary trails
Make room for a quiet detour into the estuary trail area near downtown. Keep to open, signed public routes and give wildlife and other visitors space. Ask us which routes are suitable and permitted for your rental bike that day. Where riding is not permitted, leave the bike at a suitable secure place and explore on foot. Never use railway tracks as a shortcut.
B · Around the golf course
Take your e-bike around the public trails beside the Squamish Valley Golf Club and through the Mamquam spawning-channel area. This is a recommended part of the ride; ask us to point out the loop at pickup. Stay on the public trails outside the golf course, rather than fairways or golf-cart paths. Give walkers room and respect any wildlife, erosion or high-water closures.
Before you set off
- Wear your helmet and dress for the weather. Bring water, a charged phone and a bike lock.
- Confirm the return time and your route with InFlow at pickup.
- Check business opening hours on the day. The stops are suggestions, not bookings.
- Keep the riding alcohol-free. Enjoy food or an alcohol-free drink on the ride, and save beers and cocktails for after the bikes are returned.
- Ride slowly around other people, yield to walkers, and stop somewhere clear of the trail when checking your map.
