Community spots & sessions in ID · on LutherHeggs

Along the scenic South Fork of the Snake River, the 1-mile Cress Creek Nature Trail interprets life in the area as it is now and as it was long ago. The trail climbs through sagebrush-grass communities, over juniper-covered slopes, and along a lush perennial creek. The watercress plant, a favorite food of moose, gives the creek its name. If you hike quietly you may see deer, rabbits, small lizards, or possibly an eagle or a moose. When skies are clear, prepare for an expansive view of the Snake River, volcanoes and surrounding farmland. The nature trail is self-guided, with interpretive signs along the way. The first 1 mile is wheelchair-accessible.
