Baumgartner Trails, located in Idaho's Fairfield Ranger District, offers a vast network of single-track routes winding through mountainous terrain. Riders navigate pine forests, rocky creek crossings, narrow switchbacks, and steep ridge-top climbs--best suited for advanced riders experienced with technical, off-camber trails and elevation shifts.
The Kelley Flat area includes a beginner loop and access to the challenging Iron Mountain Lookout trail, restricted to machines under 48" wide. With Baumgartner Campground and nearby hot springs serving as a base, the area supports multi-day rides, offering both scenic rewards and rugged challenges throughout the high country.Dirt Bike Trail System
