Virginia Key North Point Trails is a mountain-bike park on Arthur Lamb Jr Road in Miami, with shaded routes for beginners and more demanding options for experienced riders. Trail markers show the difficulty level, and the routes include flowing turns, humps, jumps and bridges, with views toward the water. Take a break under the shaded tent overlooking the water, or head to the beach after your ride. In manatee season, paddling nearby can add a wildlife-spotting opportunity.
