Where to ride your eBike in Ankeny
The Gay Lea Wilson Trail is the easiest place to start from Ankeny. It is a paved Polk County trail that serves Ankeny, Altoona and Pleasant Hill, with a west section of about 7.5 miles and a 5.9-mile east spur. Polk County Conservation allows eBikes that meet Iowa's definition on its paved trails at or below 20 mph. That includes Class 3 bikes, which can assist up to 28 mph but must hold to 20 mph on the trail. Slow down at road crossings and when passing walkers.
The High Trestle Trail starts in Ankeny and runs 25 miles toward Woodward, but Polk County manages only 9.6 miles of it. The lighted trestle bridge is in Boone County near Madrid, past the county section, so riding out to it is a long trip on one battery. The manager pages do not list a surface for this trail, so confirm it with the manager before you go, along with the rules past the county line. The 4.25-mile Oralabor Gateway Trail links Ankeny to the Neal Smith Trail, which runs to Big Creek State Park.
