Mountain Biking Around Lake Koocanusa Northwest Montana
Location: Between Eureka and LibbyType: Road RideRating: ExperiencedMileage: 80miles This 80-mile loop ride is arguably one of the best road riding opportunities in the Big Sky state. When the government created Libby Dam in 1972, they flooded towns and the whole Kootenai River Valley. The monster of a lake created now extends 90 miles upstream with 48 miles in the U.S. and 42miles in Canada. a cyclist's dream. It is difficult to find a level section on this ride...you'll continually find yourself going either up or down and around another bend as the road hugs high above the lake's shore. The hills and the distance earn this ride an Experienced rating.
You can ride on either side of the lake.
You never know what wildlife you will see.
Without a Car you notice alot more and don't spook the critters.
The different smells along the way are wonderful,
pine trees, cottonwood, and all kinds of plant life.
If you Love Mountain Biking, this Really is a Great Ride, and HEY
if you get Hot you can jump in....
