Take in Boise's sights from high in the sky on a colorful hot air balloon. Launching from the Western Idaho Fairgrounds, this balloon company leads as many as four passengers on a one-hour tour over Boise. Drifting over the Boise River, passengers get a birds-eye view of the Boise Valley. A champagne buffet waits for the passengers once they are safely back on ground.

Veterans Memorial Park


Greenbelt access and lake fishing

Flags fly high over the small memorial at this city park. Children play at the jungle gym, while inline skaters and bikers cruise along the Boise River Greenbelt. Pathways lead to the Boise River where the park joins the Boise River Greenbelt. Offering access to the Boise Cascade Lake, the park is also popular with fishermen and wildlife viewers. Its location makes it ideal for a quick after work picnic or for a relaxing stroll along the Boise River.
