TWIN FALLS VISITORS' GUIDE
Attractions, Accomodations and Resources
Main Attractions |
 |
Welcome to the Twin Falls area! Twin Falls lies in the midst of an environment overflowing with picturesque wonders, nestled in a lush green valley that also cradles the Snake River. This river - immortalized from journals of Lewis and Clark to the work of artistic luminaries such as Ansel Adams - rolls through the heart of Twin Falls, spilling into the breathtaking Shoshone Falls to create an even grander display than the famed Niagara Falls. Twin Falls and Jerome provide activities and entertainment for every taste. From naturalists and historians to art and music connoisseurs, there is something for everyone in Twin Falls and Jerome! |
|
| Explore wonders of nature in and around Twin Falls and Jerome. Hike in the world-famous Hagerman Fossil Beds National Monument, the heart of nature's own museum, and camp in the Sawtooth National Forest. Splash down the Snake River's steep Hagerman course on a hair-raising whitewater rafting expedition. Steep yourself in wholesome warm waters of natural hot springs - nature's spa - at Banbury Hot Springs. Descend into the darkness of ancient lava tubes retaining below-freezing temperatures year round at the Shoshone Ice Caves. Take a peek at the precarious Balanced Rock, a stone formation towering over forty-eight feet balanced on a mere four-foot-wide base, and picnic (at a safe distance) in Balanced Rock Park for a family outing. Take your family of budding skiers to Magic Mountain Resort, a family-friendly ski mountain with great snow cover in winter months. Follow the link posted below to view information on seasonal hunting and fishing in Idaho. |
