What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the stunning Snake River Canyon views and the variety of water activities available, from kayaking to boat tours. The catwalks offer thrilling perspectives, and the chance to walk behind a waterfall is a unique highlight. Some mention mosquitos and the need for watercraft passes as minor considerations.
"This park is for the boaters! There are some picnic tables but not for overnight. This park closes at 9pm. All water crafts have to be in line to get your water craft hot water washed off. All water crafts have to be checked in. This doesn't cost anything. You need your Idaho water craft pass, which costs $7. You can buy them online. If you don't have it on the water and the Sheriff's ask you for it, it will cost you $100 fine. The park doesn't require it but they will give you the information to help you out. It was really easy to do. The kayaking entrance to the water is amazing! They have the kayaking ramps, so you can get in and out safely. You can boat to the waterfalls and go under a bridge."

"Park is beautiful with plenty of picnic areas. Accessible to swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, and boating directly from the park. There is a boat ramp available and places to launch your kayak. Don't forget to stop at the hot wash station if bringing your own watercraft. If you want to rent, there are rentals available at the park.
Beware of the mosquitos in late spring and early summer! Remember sunscreen!"
