Rio Hondo bicycle path

The Rio Hondo bicycle path is a Class 1 bicycle path that parallels the Rio Hondo through Los Angeles County. The North end of the path begins at the Peck Road Water Conservation Park, about 1/2 mile South of Live Oak Avenue (which becomes Myrtle Avenue just North of Live Oak Avenue as it enters Monrovia, California) on Peck Road, on the West side of the street. The trail is mostly level.

One section parallels the runway at the El Monte Airport.

The path is connected through the back side of Whittier Narrows Recreation Area along a very rural stream bed, to the San Gabriel River bicycle path. The proximity of the Rio Hondo Bike Path to the massive El Monte Bus Station makes it one of easiest ways access a variety of local bike paths without the extensive use of car drop-offs and pick-ups. It travels from El Monte to Long Beach
