July 26, 2024: Due to unhealthy air quality and per order of the Department of Environmental Quality, we will be implementing an open burn ban at Thousand Springs, Castle Rocks, City of Rocks, and Lake Walcott State Parks. This means no campfires, charcoal, or gas fire rings. You can still use gas cookstoves.
Spring/Summer 2024 Update:
- The Billingsley Creek Visitor Center is now open 7 days a week, 9 am – 5 pm.
- Ritter Island is open Thursday – Monday 10 am – 3 pm
- Please note Malad Gorge will experience flood irrigation every other Tuesday starting May 14.
Tumbling down the canyon side at 250 cubic feet per second, Niagara Springs is a sight you won’t soon forget. The churning water is the icy blue of glaciers. The springs are a National Natural Landmark and part of the world-famous Thousand Springs Complex along the Snake River.
The park provides your best opportunity to drive into the 350-foot-deep canyon, but be cautious: The road is narrow and steep. We advise you not to risk it in a motorhome or while pulling a large trailer. Take a quick video tour.
Crystal Springs Lake
Once inside the canyon, you’ll find year-round fishing in Crystal Springs Lake, including a handicap-accessible site. Wildlife—especially waterfowl—is abundant. The park also features modern restrooms, picnic tables and a group picnic shelter.
