Experience the Thrill of OHV Adventures on your Idaho Vacations at Saint Anthony Sand Dunes
Are you someone that is always searching for a exciting place to go on your Idaho vacation with adventure and yet great thrills? If so you may want to go to Saint Anthony Sand Dunes and take your ORV and discover the challenges offered by this great playground. There are over 10,000 acres of dunes which rise to over four hundred feet for you to test your fears on.
If you aren’t an Off Highway Vehicle rider there are still fun times available whether it is by hiking or horseback riding along the sand dunes. There are fifeteen adventureous miles of barren sand for you to experience.
White Sands in New Mexico isn’t the only area with the beautiful white quartz sand. St. Anthony Sand Dunes is another one where the sand grows 8 feet each year.
There are campgrounds for you to settle in at but be prepared for some rustic camping at some of them. They are unimproved with out door biffy’s – although there are a few that are full service for those that don’t want to go to the extreme. RV’s are also allowed and there is a gravel parking area for them with hook ups, even a store of sorts to get you those items that you forgot to bring.
Discover the adventures of Choke Cherry where you will probably have to ride up the back side because the front is too steep for most vehicles. Then off to Devil’s Dune and Dead Horse Bowl along with a whole bunch of other places that you will discover as you ride the locale. Do not simply visit at the “main” dunes, explore the less used, and enjoy the area that is perfect for your desires.
Thunder Mountain is the place everyone races so if you are into competitive racing this is the place to go. You probably will just race to the top and then go back down because the other side is really steep and not conducive to racing.
The park is under the management of the BLM. There are laws, like a five mile per hour speed limit in the park that must be obeyed so you don’t harm the other campers. If you abuse this you will be asked to leave, and you should be!!
The dunes are located just 50 miles northwest of Idaho Falls, near St. Anthony in the beautiful Eastern area of Idaho, one of the most popular Idaho attractions. Come and relax and come again and often, you are more than welcome.
