HAVE ADVENTURE

Ready to explore all that Coeur d'Alene has to offer? There's no better way to do it than with a ready-made adventure! Hit the river for whitewater rafting with ROW Adventures or Western Waters, or see the sights from the sky with Brooks Seaplane. If you want to get out on the water, try a cruise with Lake Coeur d'Alene Cruises or Resort Boat Rentals and then stop by the CDA Downtown Association to see what's going on with the shops and business along Sherman Avenue. Or venture over to neighboring Post Falls, Idaho, for a trip to Highlands Day Spa or a visit to Quemlin Park or other North Idaho state parks. 

HIT THE GREEN

There are tons of local golf courses in Coeur d'Alene and the surrounding area, including Circling Raven, Stoneridge, Highland Golf, Prairie Falls Golf Course, The Links and The Resort Golf Course. 

FOR THE KIDS

Looking for something the whole family can enjoy? Head out to Silverwood Theme Park which is also home to waterpark Boulder Beach. Or stay in town and visit indoor entertainment center Triple Play Family Fun Park. If you're ready to hit the slopes, check out Silver Mountain or Schweitzer Mountain, which are also great for hiking and biking in the summer.

CHECK OUT SPOKANE

Neighboring Spokane, Washington, is just across the state line, and offers tons of cultural activities, such as museums, galleries and gyms. The area is also home to several music venues, such as the Blue Door Theatre, INB Performing Arts Center, Knitting Factory Concert House, Northern Quest Casino, the Spokane Arena, Spokane Civic Theater and the Spokane Symphony.
