Campbell Creek is a hard hike in Idaho's Boise National Forest, within the Cascade Ranger District. The trail is an out-and-back that climbs from about 5,400 feet to roughly 7,860 feet, with a total elevation gain of 1,388 feet over a distance of about 7.3 miles. The Forest Service manages the land, and the route is open year-round. The trail is natural-surfaced and allows both horses and bikes, so it works for riders and pack animals as well as hikers. That makes it a flexible option for a longer trip with gear in tow. Several other hikes sit close by. Wilson Creek is under a mile away, and Skein Lake and West Mountain are each within about 1.6 miles. For an overnight stay, French Creek campground is about 2.7 miles off.
