You will gain 831 feet (253 metres) of elevation, offering diverse and engaging scenery throughout the ride. Expect to cycle through lush coffee country with great views as you ascend from the coast, eventually reaching panoramic vistas of the Pacific Ocean around landmarks like Keauhou Bay.
Finding parking for this loop is generally straightforward; you can look for available spots in the Keauhou area or near the starting point in Hillcrest. The roads along the route are well-maintained, ensuring a smooth cycling experience.

Planning your ride for cooler parts of the day might enhance your enjoyment.

The higher elevations offer sweeping vistas of the coastline, making the climbs rewarding. It is an excellent option if you are looking for a manageable cycling experience that combines natural beauty with a good workout.
