Welcome to Beautiful North Idaho

Ski North Idaho

Lookout Pass Ski and Recreation Area straddles the Idaho/Montana border, while Silver Mountain Ski and Recreation Area is located mid-valley, adjacent to Interstate 90 and the town of Kellogg. A 3.5 mile (19 minute) long gondola links Kellogg to the ski area. During the summer, both areas cater to mountain bikers and hikers. In addition, Silver Mountain is famous for its Summer Concert Series and Lookout Pass is one of many starting points for hikes and backpacking adventures involving mountain lakes, clean air and prevalent wildlife.

Bike North Idaho

Mountain biking is fast becoming a key recreational pursuit for both locals and tourists in the Silver Valley, with trails ranging from extreme to easy. Lookout Pass is one staging area for the unique Route of The Hiawatha mountain bike trail, which begins in Montana and runs downhill through tunnels and over trestles to the North Fork of the St. Joe River, 15 miles away. Completed in 2004, the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes is a paved bike path that runs more than 72 miles from Mullan to Plummer, passing over an historic bridge on Lake Coeur d'Alene.
