Mores Mountain Interpretive Trail is a short, out-and-back hike in Idaho's Boise National Forest, within the Mountain Home Ranger District. The trail is managed by the Forest Service and covers about 0.3 miles, with a low point of 6,901 feet and a high of 6,938 feet. The climb is gentle, with a total elevation gain of about 40 feet. The trail is a compact route, so it works well as a quick stop. Bikes are not allowed on this path, so plan on walking it. Several other outdoor options sit close by. The Mores Mountain Mountain Bike Trail is about 0.2 miles away, and Shafer Butte campground is about 0.3 miles off. For winter, the To Superior ski touring route and the Mores Mountain Extension cross-country ski trail are both within a mile.
