## Overview

Discovery Hill has become one of Salmon’s destinations for getting outdoors to
hike, mountain bike, horseback ride, dirt bike, play disc golf and even
explore a 1.6-mile Podcast Trail. The Discovery Hill non-motorized trail
system, located just one mile from downtown Salmon, offers a conveniently
located network for visitors. This area’s exceptional riding opportunities
provide riders with smooth riding opportunities through rolling sage hills set
against the equally stunning backdrops of the Continental Divide and Salmon
River valley. The trails are generally smooth and fast and not too technically
challenging, which results in great opportunities for riders of all skill and
ability levels. The nearby Sacajawea Motorsports Park operated by Lemhi County
offers excellent opportunities for motorized recreation. Visitors to the area
can also walk portions of the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail and
experience a landscape largely unchanged since the Corps of Discovery passed
through the area in 1805. Although this trail system is a popular destination
for year-round riding, it is often snow-covered in the winter, and users are
asked not to ride during the wet and muddy conditions of spring thaw to
protect the trails.
