Oregon Trail Reserve is a 77-acre site located in Southeast Boise, Idaho. It offers a scenic view of the Boise Front and features the historic Kelton Ramp, a path used by overland travelers heading down to the Boise River. The reserve aims to preserve remnants of the Oregon Trail and educate the public about its historical significance. It is a partnership between the City of Boise, Bureau of Land Management, and the residents of Surprise Valley, with the Boise Parks and Recreation Department responsible for maintenance. The reserve includes a .4-mile gravel walking path that connects surrounding residential neighborhoods, providing stunning views of the Barber Valley and Boise Foothills. Visitors can also explore the two nearby ramps, Beaver Dicks and the Kelton Ramp, the latter of which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Additionally, a rare bronze sculpture depicting a pioneer family in a covered wagon has been donated to the reserve, adding to its cultural and artistic appeal.Generated from the website
