HERE, WE DO

Everything

play..

pause. repeat.

Kick up the adventure level in Sandpoint, Idaho!

Wakeboard on the cool, pristine waters of Lake Pend Oreille. Spin your wheels on the mountain bike trails. Catch a breathtaking ride on a wooden roller coaster at Silverwood. And tomorrow, do it all again.

Sandpoint’s also the place to take a deep breath and recharge. Stroll the quaint downtown sidewalks and discover an eclectic array of shops and fine restaurants. And don’t forget to just kick up your feet in the hammock and say “ahhhhh.”

Play. Pause. repeat. and Take it all in ...

Keep the adrenaline pumping in winter, too. Ski the top-rated slopes at Schweitzer Mountain Resort. Hop on a horse-drawn sleigh. Head for the nearby snowcovered trails on a fun-to-ride fat bike.

All smiles at Schweitzer

Take the adventure level down a notch by catching a local production or film in the historic Panida Theater. Savor craft beers and wines at a local tasting room. Take in all that this special town has to offer. As much, or as little, as you want to do.

Sleigh bells a ringin' in the winter wonderland at Western Pleasure

Catching air ... and a fabulous view atop a Schweitzer Mountain run.
