The Shoshone-Bannock people lived along the Portneuf River for several centuries before the arrival of Europeans. A fur trader established a trading post named Fort Hall north of present-day Pocatello in 1834. It became an important respite along the Oregon Trail. Pocatello itself was founded along a new railroad line in 1889. A replica of the Fort Hall trading post is now operated as museum in southern Pocatello. The city has 32 parks, a Museum of Natural History, the Fort Hall Replica, golf courses, swimming complex, bike & hiking trails, Pocatello Junction, a skate park, and the Pocatello Zoo are just of few of the attractions visitors and residents enjoy.
