Welcome to
the Pend Oreille Scenic Byway
ABOUT
THE BYWAY:
The
Pend Oreille (pon-der-ay) Scenic Byway offers travelers some of
Idaho’s most spectacular water views. Beginning at the
intersection with U.S. 95, Idaho 200 meanders eastward to the
Montana state line across farmlands, through river deltas, and
along the rocky northern shores of Lake Pend Oreille, all sculpted
by the massive force of glaciers and the floodwaters of Glacial
Lake Missoula. Pullouts along the byway allow visitors and
geocachers to stop and enjoy breathtaking vistas of mountainous
horizons framing miles of open water.
Four-season
recreational opportunities begin along the shores of the lake and
reach across the vast regions of national forest overlooking the
Pend Oreille Scenic Byway. Whether you are inclined to swim or
fish, boat or golf, hunt or hike mountain trails, alpine ski or
snowmobile, water ski or bird watch – each of our distinctive
four seasons offers an outstanding recreational opportunity for
almost every person who enjoys the outdoors. Visitors can find
varying accommodations from unimproved mountain campsites to
maintained shoreline campgrounds to recreational vehicles parks
along the water or choose from lakefront resorts or
motels
About the
caches:
All caches will be at a safe pullout along
the highway corridor. This highway is a 55 MPH
highway so caution should be used when navigating this road and/or
little ones are with you.
Since this is a scenic byway, bring your
camera and take some photos of your journey and post them. There
are numerous deer, elk, moose, eagles, water fowl and more to see
depending on the time of year. Oh yes and muggles sometimes!!
