In a valley nestled between 9,000-foot mountain ridges sits Lake Creek Road, an easy 4.5-mile out-and-back trail with scenic views and access to spectacular camping, fishing, and hiking.
Lake Creek Road begins at the end of a paved road in a neighborhood. It becomes a graded dirt road for 3.5 miles before turning into a dirt two-track.
There are at least a dozen turnouts and established camping spots, most right next to the crystal-clear Lake Creek. At the 3.5-mile mark, there is a day-use picnic area with a fire ring, picnic table, and vault toilet. This location also offers a spring-fed pond with excellent trout fishing opportunities.
This trail also has two moderate to challenging hiking trails - Taylor Canyon Trail and the High Ridge Trail.
Located close to Ketchum and Sun Valley, it offers plenty of local restaurants, stores, and attractions like the Ernest Hemmingway Memorial and gravesite.
