Written Directions

Take Highway 20 out of Mountain Home Idaho and head east all the way to Carey Idaho.

Scenery

There are views of high desert, flowers, wildlife, and Craters of the Moon Monument. We took Hwy 20 out of Mountain Home Idaho, on our way to Yellowstone. We began in Springfield Or, and although we were heading into Nevada on our way back, we purposely took this road again, to Carey Idaho, went south from there. This is one of the best roads I have ever ridden on, I can't wait to get the chance to do it again!

Drive Enjoyment

Twists, turns, dips, good pavement, no potholes in early June.

Tourism Opportunities

There are some little towns along this route. Plenty of fuel, and a National Monument to boot!

The road is in good condition and has some fun curves in between Mountain Home and the Camas Prairie. It does not seem to have as much traffic as some other roads. I have rode this section in conjunction with the Garden Valley, Stanley, Sun Valley Loop.

We rode the route on 9/04/2018. The roads had just been resurfaced. Long straights with long sweeping curves. Scenery was great. Just a few farm equipment and trucks hauling hay. Be sure to visit the Craters of the Moon welcome center. Well worth the drive.
