Lamoille Canyon offers numerous hiking and horseback riding trails that lead to alpine lakes and vistas. Thomas Canyon Trail begins at the campground, leading past several waterfalls, through an alpine meadow into a glacial cirque.
The canyon road is popular for scenic driving and road biking. Many rock climbing routes can be found on the canyon walls.
