Route of the Hiawatha

The Route of the Hiawatha is a rail trail on the former Milwaukee Road railroad line in the Bitterroot Mountains on the Idaho and Montana border. The ride from East Portal to Pearson runs about 15 miles on a gentle 1.6 to 2 percent downhill grade, through 10 tunnels, including the 1.66-mile St. Paul Pass Tunnel, and across 7 high trestles. Riders need lights for the tunnels, and a shuttle bus returns riders from Pearson to the top. The trail operates seasonally and requires a trail pass.
