Where to ride in Bonneville County
The City of Idaho Falls says its Parks and Recreation Department maintains over 12 miles of multi-use paved path around the Snake River, plus the Meppen Canal Trail system, and that the Riverwalk around Snake River Landing is a 12 mile loop. Visit Idaho describes the Greenbelt as five miles on both sides of the river. The sources disagree on the total, so check the city map for the segment you want.
The city's eBike ordinance, Title 9 Chapter 8, uses the same Class 1, 2, and 3 definitions as state law. It lets eBikes use sidewalks except in the Central Downtown Area, requires riders to yield to pedestrians and give an audible warning before passing, and bans eBikes at the Idaho Falls Zoo at Tautphaus Park.
The ordinance also requires brakes that stop the bike within 25 feet at 10 mph, a bell audible at 100 feet, a rear red reflector, and a front white light visible at 500 feet. Riders must keep one hand on the handlebars, obey posted speed limits, and not ride faster than is reasonable.
eBike rules in Idaho
Idaho defines three classes of electric-assisted bicycle in Idaho Code § 49-106. The bike needs fully operable pedals and a motor under 750 watts. A Class 1 motor helps only while you pedal and stops helping at 20 mph. A Class 2 motor may drive the bike by itself and cannot help at 20 mph. A Class 3 motor helps only while you pedal and stops helping at 28 mph. Under § 49-727, makers and distributors must label each bike with its class, top assisted speed, and motor wattage.
Under § 49-725, an electric-assisted bicycle carries the safety requirements of a bicycle, and its rider has a bicyclist's rights and duties. Under § 49-726, the bike is outside the Title 49 rules on driver's licenses, titles, registration, license plates, and financial responsibility, and counts as a motor vehicle only as far as 23 U.S.C. 154 requires. Section 49-714, amended in 2026, gives riders the rights and duties of a driver and requires due care, and § 49-615 requires drivers to use due care around them. Under § 49-729, a rider's violation of those chapters is an infraction.
Sections 49-725 and 49-728 let an electric-assisted bicycle go anywhere a bicycle may go, multiuse paths included, unless a local ordinance excludes it or the public agency in charge posts a sign after putting the change on a governing-board agenda. Each city, county, park, and land manager therefore sets its own path rules. We found no statewide eBike helmet rule and no minimum operator age. The helmet statute, § 49-666, covers riders under 18 on motorcycles, motorbikes, UTVs, and ATVs, and § 49-114 says a motorbike does not include an electric-assisted bicycle. Read our Idaho eBike laws guide, then the sign at the trailhead.
