Idaho's Bike Map

http://gis.itd.idaho.gov/bikemap/ (Not compatible with Internet Explorer 8.0)

Cyclists across the state now have a tool to help plan their trips on Idaho’s state highways and scenic byways. 

Idaho Bike Map was developed to aid cyclists in planning their best possible route by providing critical information on the state's roadways, such as shoulder width, traffic levels, steep grades, and more.  Use this map to explore our great state, taking advantage of its scenic byways, beautiful rivers and streams, and friendly communities.

Idaho Bike Map is a one-stop resource for cyclists of all levels.  Whether you are a beginner or advanced, a road cyclist or a mountain biker, or simply interested in recreational sightseeing, Idaho Bike Map provides the information you need to plan for a fun, safe, scenic trip through Idaho that is within your skill level.

Information on Idaho Bike Map is updated annually.  Check back before you ride – even if you are familiar with the route – something may have changed since last year.
