Idaho State Highway 38 (SH 38) is a state highway that spans 23.438 miles (37.720 km) east-west in Oneida County in the southeast Idaho., United States from Holbrook east to Interstate 15 in Malad City.
SH-38 begins at an intersection with North Holbrook Road and Stone Road in Holbrook. (From the western terminus of SH 38 the North Holbrook Road continues northwest to the Power County line and the southern terminus of Idaho State Highway 37.) From its western terminus, SH 38 heads east through a rural area between sections of the Curlew National Grassland. It takes a more crooked route east outside of Holbrook, intersecting Arbon Valley Road. From here, the highway enters mountainous terrain, passing Holbrook Summit at an elevation of 6,104 feet (1,860 m). After passing through the mountains, SH 38 enters a rural area and passes through the community of Pleasantview. The highway turns northeast toward Malad City, passing the Malad City Airport. After entering Malad City, the route turns eastward, passing through a mixed residential and business district. SH 38 leaves the Malad City limits before reaching its eastern terminus at Exit 13 of I-15. Immediately beyond I-15 is the road which was formerly U.S. Route 191.
Between 1927 and 1937, the SH 38 designation was assigned to a route (which, by 1927, had been previously designated as SH 32) that began in Roy and headed east and then northeast to Arbon, north to Pauline (along what is now the Arbon Highway) and then (along what is now the Bannock Highway) north to Crystal, and on to terminate in at the former routing of US-91 in Portneuf.
