How to Get to Cress Creek...

The Cress Creek Nature Trail lies roughly 20 miles northeast of Idaho Falls above the South Fork of the Snake River.

From Idaho Falls, take the North Yellowstone Highway north through town. Follow Highway 26 northeast to Jackson. Drive past both Ririe exits and turn north (left) on 160 E after passing mile marker 352 and follow it north to the river. 

Immediately after the road crosses the bridge at the South Fork of the Snake River, turn left onto the gravel road headed toward Rexburg. Travel 1 ¼ miles to a small parking area on the road’s right side with a Cress Creek sign and restroom.
