Sioux Pass Trail is an easy, 1.5-mile out-and-back hike in Wyoming's Shoshone National Forest, within the Washakie Ranger District. It rises about 188 feet from a low point of 9,531 feet to a high of 9,723 feet, so the climb is modest and the route is short enough to fit into a day spent exploring the area. The trail is on natural surface, and both horses and bikes are allowed. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail stays open year-round. Sioux Pass and Louis Lake are both hikes about 2.3 miles away. Louis Lake Campground and Grannier Meadows are campgrounds roughly 3 miles off, making them good bases for a longer stay.
