| Kathryn Albertson Park is a special use park located near downtown Boise. The park is 41 acres in size and was designed to be an attractive home for resident and migratory wildlife in downtown Boise. It features wide, paved footpaths which wind through the park carrying walkers past colorful, informative signs inlaid in large rocks. The signs describe wildlife and environmental themes throughout the park. Birds and salamanders, painted and boxed turtles can be seen as well as bullfrogs which can often be heard. Raccoons, beavers, rabbits, and voles can be found in the park. Red foxes sometimes visit, too. Highlights include outdoor gazebos, a fountain, a cross-section of the world's largest ponderosa pine, glimpses of wildlife, including a large population of nesting waterfowl, and access to the Greenbelt. |
