George W Nourse Gun Range

“Preserving, for public use, one of the last open and friendly environments in the Treasure Valley”
Jubilee Park has 1350 acres of open space, featuring breathtaking views of the Snake River Canyon, Owyhee Mountains, and the Boise Front. This close to home desert landscape provides a unique setting to enjoy many recreational opportunities. With over 350 acres of trails, a shooting range, and an OHV Training Area, Jubilee Park is a fun place to play.

OHV Training Area
Emphasis on education is an important aspect of Jubilee Park. The 40 acre OHV Training Area was made possible through an Idaho State Parks and Recreation grant. Off road vehicle courses are available, and teach basic riding skills, rules of the road, trail etiquette and proper riding behavior. For more information on free off-road training courses please visit parksandrecreation.idaho.gov.

George W. Nourse Shooting Range
Open all year, daylight hours only
This public range is a great place to practice the heritage sport of shooting. The George W. Nourse Shooting Range features nine shooting lanes with varying sizes and lengths. Each lane is equipped with bench rests marked with specific yardage.
