Visiting Tips

Look for ways to combine McCall's trails with a hot springs soak afterwards. To start, check out Loon Lake & Burgdorf, Jug Mountain Ranch or Tamarack & Gold Fork, Goose Lake Falls & Zims... there are too many to list!

Food & Drink

If you're looking for an award-winning beer, look no further than the Salmon River Brewery. Also, if you're hungry, try the Thai Beef Basil Salad!
