Created in 1908, Heyburn State Park is the oldest park in the Pacific Northwest. Towering ponderosa pines give way to flower-filled meadows and placid waters. Visitors can enjoy the peaceful serenity of cottages, cabins and campsites and admire the work of the Civilian Conservation Corps who built many buildings within the park in the 1930s.

Welcome to Heyburn State Park

Comprised of about 5,744 acres of land and 2,332 acres of water, Heyburn State Park is a paddler and peddler paradise.  Miles of trails await you whether you are a bike rider, horse rider or hiker.  Bring your own boat or rent a kayak, canoe or pedal boat and enjoy three lakes - Chatcolet, Benewah and Hidden Lakes or the shadowy St. Joe River, which meanders along the eastern boundary of the park. The Trail of the Coeur d' Alenes, one of the most popular biking trails in the western US, runs directly through the park.

History of Heyburn State Park

The Coeur d' Alene Indians were the first inhabitants of the area now known as Heyburn State Park. An ideal place for an encampment, the lakes provided an abundance of fish and waterfowl.  The heavily timbered slopes and open meadows were ideal habitat for deer, bear and upland birds.

Rocky Point Interpretive Center

Heyburn State Park was created from the Coeur d' Alene Indian Reservation by an act of Congress, on April 20, 1908. The deed, signed by President William Howard Taft, granted 5,505 acres of land and 2,333 acres of water to the State.  The park was named in honor of U.S. Senator W.B. Heyburn of Idaho.

Much of the early construction was performed by Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC).  Between 1934 and 1941, the CCC built roads, trails, bridges, campgrounds, picnic areas, picnic shelters and the Rocky Point Lodge. Today, many of these facilities are still in use and are a proud legacy of the CCC.
