Discover the Bruneau Dunes State Park, a spectacular natural wonder that challenges visitors' expectations of Idaho's landscape. Home to the highest single-structured sand dune in North America, this park offers an extraordinary blend of desert terrain, unique geological formations, and diverse ecological habitats. Whether you're an adventure seeker, nature photographer, or curious explorer, Bruneau Dunes promises an unforgettable experience in one of Idaho's most distinctive landscapes.
Bruneau Dunes State Park offers an extraordinary landscape of massive sand dunes rising dramatically from the surrounding high desert plains. The park features multiple dunes, with the largest reaching heights of approximately 470 feet, creating a unique environment for hiking, sandboarding, and photography. Visitors can explore diverse ecosystems including sand dunes, grasslands, and wetlands that support a rich variety of wildlife and plant species.
The Bruneau Dunes State Park protects one of North America's most unique geological formations - the continent's highest single-structured sand dune.

The park was established to preserve this remarkable natural wonder, offering visitors a chance to explore a desert ecosystem that seems more reminiscent of distant landscapes than Idaho's typical terrain.
