The CdA Trail should be really wonderful. I was out there in 2008 and actually saw the trail near both ends but had no idea it was the same trail. However be advised that the trail does not go through the town of Coeur d'Alene itself, which has great food and other amenities, so be sure to stop in there. The boat tour of the lake from downtown is nice and the Cataldo Mission is also worth a visit along the Trail.
