St. Regis: River Scenery, Golf, and Scenic Byway

River Scenery and Scenic Byway

Saint Regis lies at the confluence of the St. Regis River and the Clark Fork River. The St. Regis-Paradise Scenic Byway begins at State Road 135 in Saint Regis and follows the Clark Fork River through the Lolo National Forest. Along the route, broad, gently rolling plains give way to steep canyon walls in the Coeur d'Alene Mountains. The contrast between open landscapes and canyon walls shapes the character of the route. If you are looking for a scenic road route for your trip, the byway offers a specific option to consider.

Golf and Park

Trestle Creek Golf Course is a public, family-friendly golf course. Tee times are almost always available at short notice. Since availability can change, check tee times before making specific plans. In summer, the golf course's leagues are open to players of all skill levels. Seasonal program details can also change; if a league is important to your trip, check the relevant information in advance. This lets you choose between a tee time planned at short notice and a seasonal offering open to players of all skill levels.

St. Regis Community Park has a 0.5-mile interpretive nature trail and a playground. These two features appeal to different recreational interests and are located in the same park. The stated length gives the nature trail a specific scale; the playground is another park amenity. If you want to take both interests into account when planning, you can include the park as a separate stop on your itinerary.

Route of the Olympian

The Route of the Olympian follows an approximately 30-mile route along abandoned railroad grades between Taft and St. Regis, Montana. It accommodates both motorized and non-motorized recreational activities. Compared with the 0.5-mile nature trail in St. Regis Community Park, the route's stated length is substantially greater; the two figures indicate different scales for planning. At the route's western end, the Dominion Tunnel and Trestle sections are still under repair. Check the current condition of these sections before visiting, as conditions can change.

Market and Huckleberry Milkshakes

The St. Regis Flea Market runs for three days over Memorial Day weekend, from Saturday through Monday. If you want to coordinate your trip with the market, check the dates for the relevant year. This lets you factor the event date into your plans.

Huck's Grill at the St. Regis Travel Center serves huckleberry milkshakes. If you want to include this offering in your travel plans, you can make a note of Huck's Grill as a specific stop.

The Scenic Byway, park trail, and Route of the Olympian offer different ways to shape your itinerary. Find hotels in St. Regis that suit your travel dates and the activities that matter most to you.
