The Kirkham Ridge trail system, located in the Boise National Forest, offers over 35 miles of designated single-track motorcycle trails. The riding experience on this multi-use system can be very demanding, with terrain that includes a mix of hard-packed dirt, loose soil, and some rocky sections, especially in areas that have been heavily used by dirt bikes. The trails feature a lot of ups and downs as they traverse ridgelines, with some steep and trenched-out sections that may require more technical skill.
The trail system is accessible from multiple points, including three main trailheads near the Lowman Ranger Station, and a separate ATV access point is available on the southern section. The season for riding is typically from the spring snowmelt until the trails are closed by snow in the winter. As this is a national forest trail, a USFS-approved spark arrester is required, and riders should check with the Lowman Ranger District for current trail conditions and any seasonal closures.Dirt Bike Trail System
