| Schweitzer Mountain is a prime vacation spot all year long. Hike, horseback ride, bike, take a trail ride or hitch the quad to the top of the mountain to get the best pickins' of the huckleberry season.
And the city of Sandpoint is only a short, 9-mile drive down the mountain. Sandpoint, in any season, is well worth a visit, boasting a four-season climate and fun opportunities for all ages.
If fishing is your favorite sport, try trophy fishing on Lake Pend Oreille. The 43-mile long lake is over 1,150 feet deep and offers a chance to land a BIG ONE, a 25-pound-plus Kamloops trout. City Beach, in the downtown area, offers a variety of lake access activities such as sailing, chartered boat excursions, parasailing, kayaking, wind surfing and swimming.
