Sunset in Orleans on Cape Cod
Here we are again car camping again at Nickerson State Park. Bike the Cape Cod Bike Trail to north to Marconi Beach or east to the town of Chatham or bike and beach at Nauset Beach or maybe bike to Provincetown. Two nights, two breakfasts, two dinners, one being the infamous lobster dinner.Places of Interest

One of my best trips is camping at Nickerson State Park. I set this trip up for the end of the summer, hopefully when few people are on Cape Cod. Of course, few people on Cape Cod is actually an oxymoron.
This is somewhat of a relaxing weekend, but some people choose to eliminate the relaxing and ride their bikes 40 miles each way to Provincetown. The rest of us bike to nearby beaches like Nauset on the ocean side or Skaket Beach on the bay. Both of them are easily accessed by road biking and it allows us to bike the Rail Trail and enjoy the beach on the same day. As we ride the Rail Trail, we can also visit Marconi Beach and enjoy some ice cream stops right on the bike path.
We have even gone in the opposite direction of the Rail Trail and head over to Harwich Center and Chatham Center. This direction visits a number of lakes which are an enjoyable place to have lunch or a coffee break in Chatham.
Can you guess who these lovely ladies are?
Sometimes we have even driven up to Truro, parked in the Province Lands Visitor Center, for no fee, and ridden our bikes up and around the hills of the Province Land bike trails.
