New Improvements have Made the Portneuf River a New, Warm Weather Attraction to Pocatello!

The history of the Portneuf River is as old as Pocatello itself. We are thrilled to share the newly expanded river play opportunities in 2021 with improved access, maps, information and community support and involvement. Make sure and download the maps to your smartphone and read the information before you go. Always wear a life jacket, never go alone, and make sure you know how to swim without exception.
