Campground Details - City of Rock National Reserve, ID

Description

City of Rocks is a unique geologic area exhibiting granite pinnacles and monoliths in excess of sixty stories tall.

It has long been an oddity and wonder, especially for passing emigrants of the California Trail (1843-1869).

Today the park offers camping, hiking, backpacking, site-seeing, hunting, equestrian riding, mountain biking, exceptional rock climbing and much more.
