Hilly Trails & Hill Workouts in Idaho

Idaho has 55 trails with hills and elevation in this directory, across 21 cities and towns — Boise, Coeur d'Alene, Pocatello, Twin Falls and 17 more. Climbing and vert — hill repeats, and the strength flat running never builds.

Labels come from each trail's own listing, its website and runners' reviews. Conditions change with the weather and the season, and gates and lights follow the park's own hours, so check a recent review before you drive out.
