I love many of the paths in Idaho. The Boise River Greenbelt, the Idaho Falls Greenbelt, and especially the Ashton-Tetonia Trail all hold a special place in my heart. However, many of these trails are well known and it’s hard to find peace and quiet when you go for a stroll. The Black Bay Park Trail, located in Post Falls, may just be the best biking and walking path in Idaho. This short trail takes you around the beautiful Black Bay Park. It’s scenic, easy, and perfect for a day outdoors. See for yourself …

Black Bay Park is located in the town of Post Falls in northern Idaho. It is tucked away along the Spokane River and is beautiful in every way.

During the summer, this park comes alive with swimmers and floaters who want to spend some time in the water. It’s truly a fabulous summer day trip destination.
But this park is more than just a place to swim and spend time in the water. It’s also home to the Black Bay Park Trail, a little-known paved path that is perfect for a family adventure.

This out-and-back trail is less than a mile long and takes you to Black Bay. It loops near the bay and then heads back to the trailhead.
