Hiawatha Bike Trail

On Monday, I went with family to cross the Hiawatha Bike Trail off their bucket lists.

The Route of the Hiawatha borders Idaho and Montana, it is considered the most scenic stretches of railroad in the United States.  The 15-mile trail passes through 10 tunnels (the Taft Tunnel is a whopping 1.66 miles burrowed under the Bitterroot Mountains at the state line) and crosses 7 trestles.

While I wasn't too keen on recommending the trail right after finishing, after a few days, I can safely say that it's gorgeous, mostly downhill, and well worth the ride.
