Bike Rentals at Pedal Forward Bikes in Yosemite Valley

Pedal Forward Bikes delivers unmatched cycling access to Yosemite Valley and Bass Lake, set against California’s iconic Sierra Nevada backdrop. Their 5 Day Rentals offer ample time to take full advantage of the region’s varied terrain—from the valley’s mellow paved paths to the rugged, single-track trails of Bass Lake. Riders can choose from a comprehensive fleet tailored to every skill level: classic regular bikes suitable for dirt roads and smooth trails, nimble full-suspension mountain bikes fashioned for technical off-road sections, and advanced Turbo Levo full-suspension eBikes that provide a powerful assist for longer rides and challenging climbs.

Yosemite Valley itself is renowned for dramatic granite cliffs like El Capitan and Half Dome, ancient sequoias, and cascading waterfalls, including Yosemite Falls, the tallest in North America. Pedal Forward Bikes’ location in Oakhurst, just south of the park, places adventurers within easy reach of these monumental natural features and Bass Lake’s stunning pine-fringed waters, which offer a quieter, forested contrast.

This bike rental palette allows visitors to craft their own pace and level of adventure—whether seeking a relaxed pedal through serene meadows or an adrenaline-charged ride on technical singletrack. The availability of electric mountain bikes opens up the possibility of extended exploration without wearing down, especially in the park’s higher elevations and steep sections. Pedal Forward Bikes stands out locally due to its diverse bike selection and commitment to customizing each rental experience, enhancing visitor mobility across one of America’s most treasured outdoor playgrounds.

Perfect for families, solo riders, or groups, these rentals reduce barriers to access for Yosemite’s vast landscape and Bass Lake’s trails, making them an essential resource for anyone aiming to connect deeply with California’s outdoors on two wheels.
