The Rio Hondo Bike Path is a bicycle path that parallels the Rio Hondo (creek) through the San Gabriel Valley, in eastern Los Angeles County, California.[1] The path is gently graded, and has sections with more greenery and mature trees than other bicycle paths in the area.[1]Rio Hondo means deep river in Spanish.[2]
The proximity of the Rio Hondo Bike Path to the central regional transit hub at the El Monte Station, including the MetroLink J Line, makes it one of the most accessible routes to access a variety of bike paths and local parks.
