A wealth of information is available online about these trails but I haven't come across details describing how to ride them all in 1 tour. Apparently, there are several abandoned rail grades that could form a loop but it may not be possible at present due to washouts, missing bridges or trespassing issues.

Since the existing online trail maps vary in size and format, I used 2wheeltech.com's Google Maps API interface this morning to create 3 route maps representing the trails. These maps allow a route to be mapped over a standard, satelite, topo or hybrid map; thus, they can be useful when accurate.

If you would like to use my maps as an aid to preparing for a tour, following are links to them. No GPS coordinates were available to create the maps so please use them only as a basic guide to the approximate location of the trails. In other words, use at your own risk!

Spokane River & Idaho Centennial Trails
Coeur d'Alene Trail
Route of the Hiawatha Trail
