WELCOME TO THE
INTERNATIONAL SELKIRK LOOP
D
riving the International Selkirk Loop is truly a spectacular experience, as the 280mile (450 km) international scenic byway winds around the Selkirk Mountains through Idaho and Washington, USA, and British Columbia, Canada. Often following lakes and rivers along the way, the Selkirk Loop circles an area brimming with outdoor recreation opportunities. Explore a wide variety of awe-inspiring sights and historic treasures in a two-state, two-country vacation. In fact, the Selkirk Loop has garnered heaps of recognition. Rand McNally selected it as one of five “Best of the Roads” for its 2009 atlas. The U.S. Department of Transportation designated the
Selkirk Loop an “All American Road” in 2005. And Sunset Magazine named it “The West’s Best Scenic Drive.” So put yourself in the driver’s seat for one fabulous drive chock-full of scenery and friendly towns on the International Selkirk Loop! The book is organized into two sections. The first half of the Selkirk Loop Travel Guide contains U.S. communities, and the second half contains Canadian communities with an overview map in the middle. The communities appear in traveling order when driving counterclockwise. Allow a minimum of three to five days to visit the International Selkirk Loop. “Sample Itineraries” can be found at www.SelkirkLoop.org.
