Atlantic Coast Bicycle Route #5

Wilmington has heavy recreational traffic along the beach south to Fort Fisher and the ferry crossing the mouth of Cape Fear River. From Shalotte the terrain is essentially flat and follows two-lane roads through farm country and small towns. These conditions continue into South Carolina. The spur into Charleston gets busy as you near the city. A narrow country bridge crosses the Savannah River into Georgia, where the route heads inland to skirt around Fort Stewart and Savannah. The terrain becomes slightly rolling. Statesboro access is easy and the section ends in downtown.

ABOUT ADVENTURE CYCLING MAPS
Adventure Cycling maps are created by cyclists, for cyclists, and they are some of the best available for those in search of discovery and adventure in North America. The maps reflect the association's research as well as suggestions from thousands of cyclists who have explored the Adventure Cycling Route Network. Adventure Cycling develops the best cross-country, loop, coastal, and inland cycling routes available, with turn-by-turn directions, detailed navigational instructions for the tricky sections, and elevation profiles in the high country.

The maps are waterproof and designed to fit in a handlebar-bag window or jersey pocket. The maps provide information specifically for cyclists: the location of bike shops, sources for food and water, and listings of overnight accommodations including camping facilities, small hotels, and cyclists-only lodging.
