Smelterville balances small-town ease with quick access to big-mountain adventure. Set along I‑90 between Kellogg and Pinehurst, it’s a convenient base for everyday errands and weekend play. Locals step onto the paved Trail of the Coeur d’Alenes for miles of cycling, skating, and wildlife viewing, or roam the Idaho Panhandle National Forests for huckleberry picking in summer and snowshoeing in winter. A short drive to Wallace unlocks a nationally recognized historic district, lively events, and mining heritage.
Families are served by Kellogg Joint School District 391, offering strong academics, arts, and athletics at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. Everyday peace of mind is close at hand with Shoshone Medical Center in nearby Kellogg, while the region’s public health resources are supported by the Panhandle Health District.
Recreation is an easy yes: carve groomers or lap lift‑served mountain bike trails at Silver Mountain Resort, then cap the day with year‑round fun at the attached Silver Rapids Indoor Waterpark. For permitting, elections, and local services, residents rely on the county’s official portal at Shoshone County.
Whether you’re relocating for the trails, the schools, or the slower pace, Smelterville offers an accessible foothold in Idaho’s Silver Valley. When it’s time to buy or sell here, Agent Pronto can connect you with a top local agent to make your move seamless.
