  • The State of Idaho State Parks
    Apr 6 2026

    Discover the beauty, history, and future of Idaho State Parks, home to some of the most scenic and underrated destinations in the American West. From RV camping to outdoor recreation and road trip travel, Idaho offers a wide range of experiences for adventurers looking to explore beyond the usual itinerary.

    Your host, Brooks, sits down with Will Armbruster, Senior Public Information Officer for the Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation, to share how Idaho’s state park system was built, how it operates today, and what the future holds for campers and RV travelers.

    We chat about how Idaho State Parks became a premier destination for tourism while continuing to protect natural landscapes. The conversation also breaks down the campground reservation system, including why campsites may appear fully booked yet remain empty, along with efforts to improve fairness and access for visitors.

    Featured parks include Farragut State Park, Ponderosa State Park, and Bruneau Dunes State Park, plus additional destinations that RV travelers should consider adding to their list.

    If you are planning an Idaho RV trip or searching for expert camping tips and the best state parks in Idaho, this conversation delivers a behind the scenes look at how these public lands are managed and preserved for future generations.
