Where to ride in Shoshone County
The Route of the Hiawatha is a 15-mile rail trail with 10 tunnels and 7 trestles, including the 1.661-mile St. Paul Pass Tunnel, which is also called the Taft Tunnel. Its operator says the grade is gently downhill and that shuttle buses carry riders back up from the bottom. Every rider needs a ticket displayed on the bike, and lights are mandatory.
The operator's eBike page says Class 1 bikes are allowed, Class 2 bikes are allowed only if the throttle is disabled for the entire trail and staff check it, and Class 3 bikes are prohibited at all times. eBikes carry an extra shuttle fee that the page lists as to be determined, and a rider can avoid it by riding the eBike back uphill.
Spokehouse, the Wallace rental shop, says it disconnects the throttle on bikes used for the Hiawatha and may limit top speed, and that it does not sell trail tickets. It says riders typically do the out-and-back in 4 to 6 hours and that it requires a full-day rental.
The Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes also passes through Wallace and Kellogg. Idaho State Parks lists Class 1 and Class 2 eBikes as allowed on it.
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.
