Mountain Bikers at the 8th Street High Loop, located at the Hulls Gulch Reserve in Boise, will have to dig deep to master this trail. The recreational trail's long upper foothills just northeast of downtown demand skill, nerve and conditioning. Complete this ride, and you've earned the right to call yourself a mountain biker.

Wander into a Historic Hyde Park neighborhood district listed on the National Register. You'll appreciate the district's unique architecture and enjoy the blend of attractions, independent shops, and eateries such as Dunia Marketplace, Parilla Grill and Hyde Park Pub. It's also the official mountain bike and touring bike headquarters.

The Discovery Center of Idaho is spinning out of control at its "Gyrations" Exhibit.
