The playground of trails and outdoor recreation areas north and east of Boise, Idaho is among the best of any city in North America. National Geographic’s Boise National Forest South Illustrated Map features the Ridge to Rivers Trail System and the local parks accessible from downtown Boise, including a detailed trail chart. Beyond this local trail system, the map features the extensive multi-season and multi-use trails and recreation areas of Boise National Forest, Lucky Peak State Park and Boise River Wildlife Management Area, Thorn Creek Management Area, and BLM lands to the north and east of Boise as far as Anderson Ranch Reservoir, Steel Mountain, Swanholm Lookout, and West Warrior Peak.

The map features Trinity Mountain, the highest peak in the Boise Mountains, with its lookout tower and the camping and recreation areas at its base, plus the extensive system of alpine lakes, motorcycle and ATV trails and snowmobile routes of the Trinity Mountains to the east. The other trails, trail systems, facilities, and campgrounds across the Boise Mountains, Boise Basin, and Danskin Mountains are also comprehensively mapped and labeled. Campgrounds and water recreation facilities, put-ins, and boat-ins are marked along the Boise River and its North, Middle, and South Forks and Lucky Peak Lake, Arrowrock and Anderson Ranch Reservoirs. The map includes all towns and villages, including historic Idaho City, as well as Bogus Basin Ski Area and the south end of the Payette River Scenic Byway.

All trails are marked and labeled with trail mileages and uses, with steep slopes clearly indicated.
