Ski hills and winter resorts abound in Idaho, but you would rather stray off the beaten path, the local backcountry offers opportunities for snowshoeing, cross country skiing and even soaking in natural hot springs. Here are a few places you could go.
Harriman State Park, south of Island Park in Fremont County, offers more than 25 miles of hiking and exploring for visitors to enjoy year-round. In the winter, 24 miles of trails are groomed for cross country skiing, fat-tire biking, snowshoeing and skate skiing. With all of the trails being non-motorized access only, Harriman provides a quiet escape in a historic setting.
