Camel's Back East Side Loop
Hiking Trail
Easy
1.39 mi
253 ft
Scenic loop with steep hills and shady forest in the North End of Boise.
Camel's Back Park is a web of trails near downtown Boise. The paths begin from the streets of North End and climb steeply to views over the city and the foothills. In addition to the inclines, however, there are flatter paths among trees and beside a creek. The loop mapped here connects the best of these two kinds of trails, making one possible route through forest and to the top of the hill. The abundance of trails makes many variations possible, and there is more than one parking area you could start from. Shown here is the trailhead on 8th Street Extension/Sunset Peak Rd. Hike the loop in either direction, and don't hesitate to explore side trails or longer routes in this extensive urban trail system. Written by Jesse Weber
