The Treasure Valley is home to many high quality parks! Each one has it's own unique qualities, and many of them host events throughout the summer, like Art in the Park held in Julia Davis Park in the summer, Hyde Park Street Fair in the fall, and many more!

| Camel`s Back Park is located on the north end of the city and at the edge of the Boise foothills. It is a popular open space with a variety of things to do. Within the 11 acres of developed park, visitors can use tennis courts, playground equipment, and an outdoor gym. Picnic areas and open-play areas also are popular throughout the warmer months. One of the real appeals of this city park, however, is its access to the foothills and sprawling Ridge to Rivers trail systems, perfect for mountain biking or hiking. |

| The city`s oldest park, Julia Davis Park was created thanks to a generous donation of 43 acres of land in 1907 by Thomas Davis as a memorial to his beloved wife, Julia. It is one of the riverside parks in the "Ribbon of Jewels" named for prominent local women.
This park hosts unique features unlike any park in Boise:
About 2,400 roses bloom every year in the Julia Davis Rose Garden, which is a popular location for wedding ceremonies and rose lovers of all ages. The Pavilion is available for reservations;
A larger-than-life size bronze statue of Abraham Lincoln was unveiled June 19, 2010. Located in a grassy area east of the Idaho Black History Museum, the statue is an enlarged replica of the most famous image of Lincoln seated on a bench created by Idaho born sculptor Gutzon Berglum; and more! |
