Stretching about 25 miles along the beautiful Boise River waterfront, the
Boise River Greenbelt offers pretty, mellow riding suitable for all setups. Challenge the kids to a trainingwheels trip to
Lucky 13 ($; 3662 S. Eckert Rd., 6 flat miles from downtown; 208/344-6967) for pizza on the patio, or cruise about 5.5 miles farther to
Lucky Peak Reservoir―and beyond, if you’re up for a climb.
Pull over for a play Tucked into a nature preserve just off the Greenbelt bike path, the
Idaho Shakespeare Festival’s Elizabethan-style amphitheater is one of Boise’s cultural icons. Tickets from $26; 5657 Warm Springs Ave.
