Lucky Peak State Park is the perfect place to get away for swimming, picnicking, fishing, boating or biking. The park is a 10-minute car ride from downtown Boise or a 30-minute bike ride on the scenic Boise River Greenbelt. Ride your bike to the park and enjoy a cool dip in Sandy Point Beach. Bring your family and your dog to Discovery Park for a picnic, or bring your water toys to Spring Shores, which offers boat ramps, ample parking, a full-service marina, on-site watercraft rentals and a convenience store.
