![]() However, the abundance of watering holes and popular cliff-jumping sports makes the effort worthwhile. With steep cliffs ranging from 10 to 50 feet high, the Rae Dell entrance is not for beginner hikers given the steep climbs. Looking for a more adventurous swim? The Gus Fruh access point, which is also located in a private neighborhood, provides access to some lesser-known, deeper swimming holes as well as a handful of climbing walls just south of the entrance.Īlso known as “Land Bridge,” the Rae Dell access point is great if you are looking to hike advanced terrain. This entrance leads to multiple hiking trails as well as Campbell’s Hole, a popular family-friendly swimming hole. Four miles into the Trailhead, the path will be divided by a fork at which you can continue on the Greenbelt or diverge onto the Violet Crown Trail.įound just north of Barton Hills Elementary School, you can access the east entrance of the Greenbelt from Barton Hills, a residential neighborhood. The trail itself is flat enough for a relaxed first-time hike, but watch out because it is also frequented by avid joggers and bikers. This access point is the most accessible entrance for downtown dwellers and paid parking is readily available. However, we didn't feel welcomed here.The Trailhead entrance to Greenbelt is a low-impact trail for beginner hikers. Agree with other reviews that the campground is beautiful, grassy, and great wide spots. Had we not already set up our trailer, we probably would have left - it was a bad feeling and we never felt comfortable at this campground. But it would have been much better received had he handed us the rules and asked that make sure we follow them rather than reading each one to us and threatening us with eviction if we don't follow them. I understand that Dave wants to insure the protection of his property and his permanent tenants. We camped at two other campgrounds on this trip and neither one overstated or even stated what their rules were or what the ramifications were if they were not followed. Having two dogs we always assume the campground has strict rules regarding the care of and pick-up after your dogs. We have camped at many campgrounds with some having strict rules. We set up our trailer and we went back to see Dave and complete our check-in. Dave wasn't around when we arrived but their was a note with our name and the spot we were reserved. Oh and it was fairly close to several wineries we wanted to visit. We reserved this park several months ago because the grounds looked lovely, full hook-ups, and a great view of the river. Overall, if we were going back to that area of Idaho we all agreed we would definitely stay there again. ![]() The water tastes funky but it’s not dangerous. Beautiful, quiet, they allow dogs on leashes, right next to the river and reasonably priced. There are quite a lot of mosquitos but I expect that next to a river and with all the lawn watering. They have a nice covered pavilion for group get-togethers. ![]() You park your RV and vehicle on the grass and each site has full hookups and include a folding picnic table and a fire pit. Apparently there is no water shortage in Idaho. They water every unoccupied site almost constantly. The owner is absolutely obsessed with keeping the grass green and beautiful and the sprinklers going 15 hours a day contributes greatly to this. ![]() ![]() The entire park is grass covered, green and lush and shaded by mature trees and right next to the Snake River. We stayed for a week in this beautiful park a few weeks ago with our RV group from California. ![]()
