After starting on a list of things we love about Boise, we quickly realized there is a lot to love! As we mentioned in our first article, we plan to spread the love over a few editions.
Bogus Basin Resort
Just sixteen winding miles from Boise, it's hard not to love and appreciate Bogus Basin. Affordable ski passes, night skiing, close proximity, and tubing are a few of the many things to love about Bogus Basin. Bogus is also a great escape from the inversion to get a reliable source of vitamin D.
When the weather heats up, Bogus Basin becomes a cool escape with miles of trails for hiking and biking, frisbee golf, picnic spots, and live music at the lodge.
Boise River & Greenbelt
These two lovely features of Boise could easily be separated into their own categories, but since the greenbelt follows the river, we're putting them together.
The Boise River has long been a great escape for Treasure Valley residents as summertime temps in July and August heat things up. Whether it's floating the river, relaxing in the shade, or swimming, it's a great escape during warmer months.
The Boise River Greenbelt is one of the most popular places for walkers, bikers, and runners. The 25-mile tree-lined path follows the Boise River through the heart of the city. You’ll experience scenic views as you pass through parks and along secluded areas of the river.
Access to Public Land
Boise's location along the edge of multiple national forests is an amazing opportunity for those who love outdoor recreation. Biking, running, kayaking, camping, hunting, fishing — the list goes on and on!
Within 2-1/2 hours of downtown Boise you can be in the Sawtooth National Forest, Payette National Forest, or the Boise National forest, with world-class whitewater rafting, mountain biking, fly fishing, etc. As a matter of fact, 60% of the land in Idaho is public land! This is no secret to Idahoans, and it's something many of us treasure and work hard to protect.
We covered some more great reasons to love Boise, stay tuned in future editions for even more!
