The gravel Hiawatha path and the bitumen Coeur D'alene Trail are both GREAT Rail Trails in Idaho near Wallace ID, with great facilities along the way, and absolutely fantastic scenery!
Hire a MTB from May 25th, for the Hiawatha and drive 10 miles to the start from the ticket sales at the top of the Lookout Pass, as I destroyed my front tyre on the Silvio, by riding down and up 10 miles of rough 4wd used rail trail through only 1 short tunnel from the lookout to the first Long tunnel, and the start of 15 miles of the well maintained hard packed gravel trail through 11 tunnels from 1.66 miles long and 9 steel curved trestles through new forests! You can get a bus ride back to the start if you want.
The ?Coeur D'alene Trail is 38 miles long from Palmer to Lookout pass with 30 miles bitumised with rest stops every 5 miles and toilets every 15 miles, and only 8 miles up to the Lookout pass as gravel.
I stayed at Osburne Caravan park at $20/night with great showers, after having booked 4 nights at the Rose Lake, only to find out that there is no shower, or bathroom.
The Kellog Mining museum is one of the best I have seen, as was the Wallace mine tour, and especially the 60+ mph Wallace Flying Fox, and the Old Cataldo Mission for the history of the Missionaries and the Idians in this area.
It is NOW a beutiful area compared to 1930 when all the Copper and Silver mines were operating!
Happy Touring
