The Idaho Panhandle National Forests lie in beautiful North Idaho, where quaint villages snuggle up against soaring peaks or hug the shores of deep blue lakes. Backcountry trails guide the traveler through evergreen forests to remote lakes and spectacular views. Quiet country lanes take the motorist by abandoned mining towns, and trace Civil War era military wagon roads. Over 4,000 miles of rivers and vast lowland lakes are home to world-class sport fisheries. Foam-flecked rapids challenge the whitewater rafter. Glassy-quiet runs beckon the canoeist to travel where steamboats once carried miners with dreams of riches gouged from the earth. The powder snows delight skier and snowmobiler. The Idaho Panhandle National Forests - a natural experience!
