Idaho Vacations, Trips & Travel Packages
Idaho is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The state's capital and largest city are Boise. Idaho is quite mountainous and contains several stretches of the Rocky Mountains. The landscape is rugged with some of the largest unspoiled natural areas in the United States.
The rugged state has snow-capped mountain ranges, rapids, vast lakes, and steep canyons. The waters of the Snake River – known by early pioneers as the dreaded “River of No Return” – run through Hells Canyon, the deepest gorge in the United States.
Must-sees include the awe-inspiring cascade of Shoshone Falls, called the “Niagara of the West,” and Craters of the Moon National Monument: this eerie desert landscape so closely resembles lunar conditions that astronauts actually train here.
Idaho is all about nature. Visit Salmon-Challis National Forest, the sandy Bruneau Dunes State Park, the vast Boise National Forest, and the Idaho portion of Yellowstone National Park. Idaho’s unique geological, volcanic landscape also means countless geothermal pools and hot springs, including Lava Hot Springs and a water park.
A variety of scenic, natural, historic, recreational, archeological and cultural experiences can be found on Idaho’s 31 scenic byways, many of them intersecting the 500 miles of Idaho’s piece of the historic Oregon Trail. Chesterfield ghost town, Pioneer Historic Byway, Fort Hall Replica, and the National Oregon/California Trail Center – which simulates an actual wagon train experience of the 1850s – are four important historical attractions that will give you a better understanding of the hardships endured by early Western pioneers.
