We have compiled a list of the best places to take out-of-town visitors to show them the best of Boise in the fall!   See the Foliage from the top of Camel’s Back Park: Photo courtesy of Getty Images Boise is the known as the City of Trees and what better place to see it in its full glory than up at Camel’s Back Park? Camel’s Back Park sits in the heart of the North End of Boise. The park sits at the base of a large hill in the shape of a camel’s back, giving the park its name. A short but steep hike up stairs will reward you with stunning views of the valley as the city of trees begins to change color. The park also offers a large playground, tennis courts, picnic tables, outdoor gym, and sand volleyball courts. Bring your visitors by for sunset or a midday picnic!   Explore the local Farmers Market: The Boise Farmers Market is open every Saturday through October from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 1500 Shoreline Drive and is the perfect place to find locally grown fall produce. The Capitol City Public Market focuses more on pre-made food, art, and produce and remains open through December. Take your visitors on Saturdays from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at The Grove Plaza for some cinnamon sugar mini donuts or some locally made apple cider to experience the magic of Boise!    See a Boise State Football game: Home to Boise State University and its iconic blue turf stadium, Boise’s college football scene comes alive in the fall. Located near downtown along the Boise River, Albertson’s Stadium is the perfect place to bring guests for a fun event. The roar of one of the loudest crowds in college football and the sea of blue and orange make these games exciting even for those who are less than diehard fans.
