Stroll the scenic Idaho Falls River Walk, a five-mile loop tracing the Snake River’s edge with views of the city’s namesake waterfall and vibrant public art. The walk is especially peaceful at sunrise or sunset, when the sky reflects off the river and locals are out for a jog or leisurely bike ride. Families and nature lovers will enjoy the Idaho Falls Zoo at Tautphaus Park or an afternoon exploring the Museum of Idaho, where rotating exhibits connect the region’s past to global stories.
With Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks just a couple of hours away, Idaho Falls is a perfect home base for adventure.
