Anderson Ranch Dam Recreation Area

Enjoy the pristine beauty of Elmore County’s countryside as you’ve never seen it before.  A network of groomed trails is located north of Highway 20 near the Anderson Ranch Reservoir in southwest Idaho. More than 380 miles of well-marked, groomed trails offer snowmobilers nearly every kind of terrain imaginable for winter fun. The base elevation is 4,200 feet and climbs close to 10,000 feet in the fabulous Trinity Mountains and the high-mountain prairies and rolling hills of Cat Creek.
Popular paths include Trinity Lakes, Pfifer Creek, James Creek, Burnt Creek and Wagon Town Loop. Trails lead to the areas and towns of Featherville, Pine, Deer Creek, Prairie, Rocky Bar, Atlanta, Fall Creek and Idaho City. There are numerous snowmobile off-load areas and a quaint warming hut nested in the Trinity Mountains area. Pick up a detailed snowmobile trail map at any one of the area businesses. The map shown depicts the general trails.

Snowmobiling allows you to view miles of Idaho back country scenery, see wildlife in their natural habitat and socialize with your friends.

Several locations in the Anderson Ranch Recreation Area offer lodging, food, gas, restaurants, bars, RV facilities and snowmobile rentals.

Fairfield...Discover Snowmobilers' Hidden Paradise

Fairfield is an undiscovered snowmobiling paradise. Located in south central Idaho, Fairfield is centrally located to three snowmobiling parking and trail access areas. It is quickly emerging as one of the State’s greatest kept secrets. From the wide-open Camas Prairie to the adjacent foothills and Smokey Mountains within the Forest Service, each year visitor numbers increase as they discover the beautiful vistas and nearly 200 miles of groomed trail with new and expanded trails being added each season. Riders enjoy excellent backcountry beauty with seemingly endless off-trail opportunities to explore for beginner to expert riding levels. Return to town to relax and enjoy weekend apre’ sled events.
