Sometimes, you have to hike for miles and on long and strenuous trails to capture remarkable views. Other times, like on the Eagle Pathways Trail, you can simply walk on a paved trail along a river. Whether you want a day outdoors or you are looking for the perfect family activity, the Eagle Pathways Trail is ideal.
When you are in the beautiful city of Eagle, there is plenty to see and do. Sometimes, however, you need to get away, enjoy some peace and quiet, and take a stroll through nature. The Eagle Pathways Trail allows you to do all of that and much more.
The trail follows along the beautiful Boise River. Some of the river views will make it hard to believe that you are in the city, rather than tucked away in the mountains.
If you are looking for a challenge, there are many dirt and gravel trails that stem off of the paved Eagle Pathways Trail, immersing you even deeper into the trees. These trails are where you can truly get away from the crowds and find some peace and quiet outdoors.
This paved out-and-back trail in Idaho offers lots of shade, making it ideal any time of the day. But, we highly recommend you explore this trail during sunrise or sunset. The views are breathtaking.
The Eagle Pathways Trail is a family-friendly paved trail that is open year-round. You can even bring your furry friend along with you, but they must always be on a leash. You can learn more about this trail and others in the area on the City of Eagle website.
