Alive After Five

Stop by the Grove Plaza after 5PM on Wednesdays during the summer for free concerts and local entertainment. Many restaurants and businesses downtown also offer happy hour specials, local entertainment, and other fun activities during Alive After Five. Find a band that you and your partner will enjoy, then walk around the city for happy hour or dinner.

Julia Davis Park

The Julia Davis Park is Boise’s oldest park, and one of Idaho’s prettiest spots along the Boise River. Walk along the Green Belt underneath the cool shade of the gigantic leafy trees or break out your bikes and cruise alongside the Boise River. Stroll through the Rose Garden and sit in the romantic pavilion.

If you’re looking for a more secluded activity, rent one of the paddle boats and float alongside the swans and geese that frequent the pond. Enjoy a relaxing paddle and have fun with your significant other trying to race the infamous Boise geese.
