- The City of Lynchburg is home to a variety of trail systems open to the public for walking, hiking, running, and biking. The Blackwater Creek Trail system connects to the University of Lynchburg through the Creekside Trail which goes along College Lake.

- The University of Lynchburg’s Bike Shack is a fully-equipped, no- or low-cost bike repair shop and the hub of a bicycle renaissance at the University. Bring in your bike for repair, learn to repair it yourself, or donate a bike for someone else. It all leads to more folks pedaling around campus and town — good for you and good for our planet. You can find The Bike Shack on campus next to the parking lot behind 335 College Street.
