Hiking, biking, horseback riding and ATVing are popular activities. Many miles of trails crisscross Island Park, including the 2.5-mile Coffee Pot Rapids Trail, which begins in the campground and meanders along the riverbank. The Continental Divide National Scenic Trail and the Nez Perce Trail are in the area.
Island Park Reservoir and Henry's Lake are nearby, both offering boating, water skiing and excellent fishing opportunities.
The Big Springs National Recreation Water Trail offers an approximately three-hour float or canoe trip through beautiful scenery. Wildlife, including moose, bald eagles and Sandhill cranes, are often seen along the trail.
