Point of Interest
Rated easy, the trail is wide and well maintained. The Giant Red Cedar trail introduces visitors to a wet draw bottom and an old-growth cedar stand. The largest tree is designated as the "Champion Tree of Idaho" (18 feet in diameter, 177 feet in height). Note the large cedar shattered by wind and another fallen giant that is crossed by a footbridge. This trail is closed to all motorized recreation. Paved walkways make this a fully accessible trail.
