Theres nothing we love more than local vendors, tasty food, and walking outside on a warm summer morning. Wheres more perfect to do all of that than the Saturday Farmers Market in downtown Boise.

Take A Hike

Hiking is second nature to us here in Boise. With the foothills literally in our backyard, there are more trails than we can count. Some of our favorites and Boise -must trek trails are the Idaho Penitentiary, Stack Rock from Bogus Basin, Ceravide Peak from Lucky Peak Reservoir, or around the hills of Camels Back. Be sure to start in the morning and avoid the dry, Boise summer sun heat.

The Springs
