Three Island Crossing State Park, Historic state park in Glenns Ferry, Idaho, US.

Three Island Crossing State Park spans 613 acres along the Snake River, featuring original wagon ruts from the Oregon Trail migration period.

The crossing point remained active until 1869 when Gus Glenn established a ferry service two miles upstream, leading to the development of Glenns Ferry.

The Oregon Trail History and Education Center displays exhibits about pioneer emigrants, Native American heritage, and the significance of westward expansion.

The park maintains multiple campsites with electrical hookups, eight rental cabins, hiking trails, picnic areas, and access points for Snake River fishing.

Each August, the local community organizes a crossing commemoration event featuring historical skills demonstrations at this National Historic Trail location.
