I just finished riding the entire Trail of the Coeur d’Alenes, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. This trail is truly one of the most beautiful paved rail-trails in the country — smooth, scenic, and full of variety, from quiet wetlands and river corridors to sweeping lake views and historic Silver Valley towns. I rode it with Discovery Bicycle Tours, and the trip couldn’t have been better. Our guides, Steven and Ali, were absolutely outstanding. They brought the perfect mix of professionalism, encouragement, and fun to every mile. Their knowledge of the trail, attention to detail, and genuine care for the group made the entire journey feel effortless and enjoyable. Whether it was keeping us fueled, sharing local history, or cheering us through the long stretches, they were exceptional every step of the way. If you’re considering this trail, I highly recommend experiencing it with Discovery Bicycle Tours. The combination of world-class scenery and top-tier guiding made this ride something truly special.
Rode the trail today. Lots of folks there but still really enjoyed it.
Discovered this comfortable place with great accommodations for two bike travelers. They offer a pullout sofa if you do not wish to share a bed. Indoor bike storage with a comfy bed and a hot shower! Distillery right next-door and two restaurants to fuel up in the morning to get back on the trail. Close to the panhandle of West Virginia. Their name is Harmony Trail Haven on Airbnb.
I rode this trail with a few friends on May 2-3 2026. We had breakfast at The Gateway cafe, which is in sight of the trailhead in Plummer, and I would definitely recommend. Their generous breakfast portions fueled us up for the trip ahead. We parked at the Plummer trailhead, and on the first day we rode all the way to Wallace, which is a cool town with a beautiful historic downtown. On the way, we stopped for lunch at the Timbers Roadhouse in Cataldo, which had some great sandwich options and worked well with our pacing for a lunch stop. For the ride, weather was perfect and we enjoyed amazing views and saw deer, turtles, birds, and a moose alongside the trail.
On the second day, we rode from Wallace to the Mullan trailhead in the morning before returning to Wallace to pack up our Airbnb. This section mostly follows the road, but is separate and in the trees enough to still be enjoyable. The ride back to Plummer was as good as the first day and we stopped in Harrison for lunch at the Lakeside Grill and ice cream at the Creamery, both places I'd recommend checking out if you find yourself in Harrison.
If you're planning to ride the full trail as we did, be sure to take as much water as you think you'll need, as well as some snacks to keep your energy up. The towns with resources are pretty far apart, so you don't want to be caught out unprepared.
Everyone in my crew thoroughly enjoyed the experience and agreed that this would be a great trail to ride again.
Highly recommend this beautiful and well kept trail. Beautiful to ride along the trees and over the 2 epic ohiopyle bridges.
What an amazing day we had on the Hiawatha last month. We were there the last week of their season and chose a good weather day for the ride. My husband and I are in our mid-fifties, of average physical shape, and rode mountain bikes I’d just inherited. After reading another review regarding the trail, We elected to ride approximately 13 miles down the trail and then back up, which saved us the transport fee. It was a great workout, but doable. With many stops for pictures, water, and snacks.. it took us 4 hours.
I rode this trail while on vacation. It offers numerous places to stop for a meal, snacks or beers. Occasional detours which are common with city trails. A good mix of nature and city sights, including watching surfers on the Boise River rapids. Very well maintained!
It’s a beautiful trail, much of it deviates from the main highway and the stretch between Midvale and Weiser was remote and amazing. The trail material is horrible though. Large angular gravel beats the crap out of you and your bike. Did the trail in two days and took three days for my kidneys to recover from the constant shaky and bumpy ride. I strongly recommend staying away from the Weiser to Weiser canyon stretch. That part was extremely brutal. Park at the parking area near the entrance to the canyon.
Boise is a beautiful city, and this trail is great if you like that kind of riding. It's somewhat kinda closed in and you don't really get any views of the mountains or the river. Lotsa people on the trail as well.
Went from the Presley to Midvale and I have to say this was the roughest rail trail I have ever been on. While the scenery is great, you have to stop to really take it in because while riding, you are constantly on the lookout for big rocks that'll shift your bike and you're always looking ahead to try and select the smoother part of the trail. This would be a really awesome trail if somehow it could get smoothed out & cleaned up.
I rode this trail the last weekend in September on an overcast morning, and loved it! I loved the rural feel and the colorful mountains in the distance. The last mile or two we biked through a canopy of yellow trees on a winding path. Gorgeous!
