Bruneau Dunes State Park

Among the pristine sand dunes and across the lake, it is a bird’s paradise. There are waterfowl to be found along the lake, and the shadows of birds of prey as they sweep across the horizon. The ever present chatter of the bird chorus replaces the stillness of the sand dunes. Bruneau Dunes State Park is a state park of Idaho, USA, featuring several large sand dunes and a small lake. The park is located south of Mountain Home, Idaho, outside of Bruneau. The park is the site of North America's highest single-structured sand dune which is approximately 470 feet (140 m) high. The park is also the site of the Bruneau Dunes Observatory, where visitors can use a telescope for stargazing.
