Hiking

The Inferno Cone Trail is no true trail: over half a mile, you just walk straight up the steep cinder cone of the Inferno Cone where a single old tree offers some shade. The view over the dramatic landscape with the Great Rift, the Snake River Plain, and the Pioneer Mountains is breathtaking! It can be pretty windy up here.

Hiking

Small steep path rewarded with a beautiful panoramic view. Along the way grow the beautiful bitterroot, which conjures up a contrast to the lava with its white flowers.

Hiking

An 800-meter steep path leads to the summit of Inferno Cone, from where you can enjoy the great view of the bizarre volcanic landscape.
