2. Glenns Ferry to Lowman

GLENNS FERRY TO LOWMAN – 156 miles

From Glenns Ferry, the route crosses over a shoulder of Bennett Mountain, and then heads west on Hwy 20 to a turnoff signed “Anderson Dam Prairie”. After meandering along the shore of Anderson Ranch Reservoir, the route reaches the tiny town of Pine which features gas, a convenience store, and lodging opportunities, and is the only place to fill up until Lowman.

Just north of Pine the route begins a dramatic climb into the Boise National Forest and a much different Idaho begins to take shape. From there, the ride is scenic, but slightly grueling with relentlessly twisty gravel roads passing by jagged mountains and alpine lakes. The Trinity Lakes are a must stop with opportunities to rest or grab a campsite for the night. A road continues past the lakes to a gate below Trinity Mountain Lookout.

Twisty forest roads continue northward before descending to the South Fork Payette River valley and the town of Lowman with several options for food, gas, and lodging.
