About the Wood River Trails
The
32-mile Wood River Trails system includes paved trails – connecting the
communities of Sun Valley, Ketchum, Hailey, and Bellevue – that are
open year-round.
Built and maintained by the Blaine County Recreation District, the Wood
River Trails have a minimum 10-foot paved width throughout. The trails
are for non-motorized use only – open to walkers, bikers,
rollerbladers, cross-country skiers, snowshoers, and equestrians. The
trail follows the Big Wood River and is along a historic route on the
former Union Pacific railroad right-of-way, crossing several historic
bridges and providing beautiful views of the valley. No pass is required to ski on the Wood River Trail.
You can easily access the trails from the cities of Ketchum, Sun
Valley, Hailey, and Bellevue. There’s a gentle 1000-foot elevation gain
over the entire length of the trail system. A self-guided tour of
historic and other points of interest along the trails is also
available.
