4 Must-Experience Treasure Valley Attractions

If you search for the best places to visit and live in the United States, Boise, Idaho is often near the top. If you live here, then you already know how vibrant the City of Trees is, but even locals might not have truly experienced all that the city and Treasure Valley have to offer. Here are four things that anyone should do to get the full Boise experience. From checking out the freshest seafood Boise offers to taking in the sights and sounds of the area, there are few summertime activities as uniquely Boise as these.

Downtown Boise Restaurants

Take a Stroll on the Boise River Greenbelt

Ask any Boise resident what their favorite feature of the city is, and the Boise River Greenbelt is bound to be somewhere on their list. From the parks of downtown Boise to Garden City and beyond, the Greenbelt follows the Boise River and is lined with trees and other natural sights. Some use the path for their daily commute, but taking a leisurely stroll down it is also an excellent way to spend an afternoon. Whether it’s a means to get from point A to point B or how you and a loved one take a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, strolling the Boise River Greenbelt is a must.

Float the Boise River

Once the heat of summer rolls around, locals and travelers alike flock to the shores of the Boise River to kick back for an afternoon of floating. Floating the river is as authentically Boise as it gets. No frills, just good old-fashioned fun. All you need is a tube, raft, canoe, or stand-up paddleboard, and you’re all set. Grab a couple of friends and coordinate the logistics of getting to the access points, and you’re ready for an afternoon of authentic Boise fun.

Explore the Local Trails

Along with being a booming metro area home to tech companies and more downtown Boise restaurants than you can shake a fork at, you don’t need to go far to get out into nature in Boise. The surrounding areas are full of countless hiking and mountain biking trails. From Camel’s Back Park to Table Rock, no matter your experience or skill level, there’s a trail for you. Consult with local guides online and plan to spend some time exploring this weekend.

Experience Fine Dining

Finally, to get a true appreciation for the area, skip the chain restaurants, and visit a local gem. Of the many restaurants downtown, many recommend experiencing fine dining at its best at Chandlers. The steakhouse is known for prime steaks, but they also serve up some of the best seafood Boise has to offer as well. With live music, a sophisticated atmosphere, and to-go options, you can’t go wrong when you dine at Chandlers.

About Chandlers

If you search for the top steakhouses in the nation, you’ll often find Chandlers on the list. This Boise restaurant has been serving up prime steaks and jet-fresh seafood since 2007 and continues to raise the stakes with every new menu item. Chandlers offers a variety of fine dining fare, including filet mignon, lobster, American Wagyu, and so much more. As a bonus, dining in at Chandlers is memorable in itself, as the restaurant hosts some of the best live music Boise offers. If you want to take the tastes of Chandlers home with you, order from the Butcher Block menu. They provide the steaks and sides, and you get to enjoy them in your own private dining room at home.
