Trail Overview

The Greenhorn - Imperial Connector is likely the first trail most riders will take out of the Greenhorn staging area for this trail system. It's a short connector trail that starts directly from the trailhead and is how you access most of the trail system. The hardest and rockiest section is right in the beginning as you leave the trailhead, with a bunch of small boulders embedded in the trail going into a big stream crossing that is pretty deep. There are optional bridges over the streams for the hikers. This is a popular area not only for dirt biking but also for hiking, mountain biking, and equestrian use, so you'll likely see other users on the trail. The rest of the trail is a wide, smooth, and easy path with a couple of embedded rocks.

Access Description

The Greenhorn Trails are an extensive trail system south of Ketchum Idaho that gets a high amount of use from various recreational users including mountain bikers and horses and hiking in addition to dirt biking. There's a decent-sized parking lot at the staging area for Greenhorn Trails, that can accommodate trailers, but doesn't allow camping, and gets full even on weekdays. The trails can also be accessed off of Warm Springs Road to the north and Deer Creek Road to the south, which both have places to camp. It's an extensive system with trails of varying difficulty from easy to advanced. This area can get really hot in the summer and doesn't have much shade. This area is very well signed and maintained, but most of the area doesn't have cell service, so download your maps ahead of time.
