§ 02 — OVERVIEW
The Lunch Counter/Kahuna Overlook day use area provides parking for those who wish to watch and photograph river floaters going through the famous Lunch Counter and Big Kahuna rapids, as well as direct river access for boating, fishing, and wildlife viewing. It is located in the Snake River Canyon, off of Highway 89 south of Hoback Junction.
Three trails leave from the parking area. The first provides direct river access just above the Kahuna rapid. The second is a paved, wheel chair accessible trail that winds down to an overlook of the rapid, a great place to watch surfers and rafters, as well as a great view of the river and canyon. The third and longest trail winds down to just above the Lunch Counter rapids, and is a beautiful place to enjoy the river.
