Ride Around Torch Lake
2026-07-19 07:00 - 12:00 | Elk Rapids High School, 620 East 3rd Street, Elk Rapids, MI, United States
The Ride Around Torch is a one-day recreational bicycle tour with 4 scenic routes that follow the shoreline of the legendary Torch Lake, ranked by National Geographic as one of the world’s most beautiful lakes. Lakeside views, countryside farms and orchards, and rolling hills comprise the majority of the riding.
Opt for the signature 63 mile route, which circumnavigates the lake in its’ entirety. Our 26 and 40 mile routes manage to traverse southern portions of the lake, offering a similar experience for those looking for something a little less ambitious. Or for the ultimate challenge, tackle the all new for 2026 Chain-O-Lakes Century – a route that envelops not only Torch, but many of the lakes that comprise the nearly 100 mile long Elk River Watershed.
