About Coeur d'Alene
Fantasy in Lights
- Almost no one wants to drive across the country on I-90 in mid Winter
but, just in case you are here during the holiday season, you certainly do
not want to miss their Fantasy in Lights show. We just though we'd mention
it, just in case. Get specifics and schedules from the Visitors' Center.

Tubbs Hill - This small, solitary peak at the south end of town
fronting Coeur d'Alene Lake features a very nice, 3.2 mile walking trail
which loops around Tubbs Hill. Enjoy great views of the lake plus a
pleasant stroll through the woods.
Take I-90 exit 15 and follow I-90 Business (Sherman Avenue) to S. 3rd
Street. Turn left, cross the tracks and drive to the parking area at the
end of the street.
Coeur d'Alene Lake Scenic Drive - Here is one of the most scenic
drives in the region. If eastbound on I-90, take exit 22 and head south on
ID-97. This is a good road and follows the east shore of Coeur d'Alene
Lake to ID-3 at the southern end. At ID-3, turn left and follow it north,
past another chain of lakes, back to I-90 at exit 34.
If you are westbound on I-90, take exit 34 and follow ID-3 southbound to
ID-97. Turn right on 97 and follow it, northbound, back to I-90 at exit
22. There are about 6 or 7 mile at the south end of ID-97 where the
highway climbs up and runs along a plateau. Watch out for deer and other
larger animals along here. Total drive about 58 miles.
