Trail Overview

This wide easy trail travels right along the banks of the stunning Clark Fork River. You'll pass fields of hay and tons of spectacular bridges and waterways. A pit toilet double boat load is in the area at the trail's end. Plenty of parking and turnaround spaces and fishing docks. It's a short, sweet trail with amazing views. This trail is hard-packed dirt with room to pass oncoming and the occasional pothole.
