Idaho Falls Travel Information
Idaho Falls (pop. 51,000) is a young, clean city at the base of the
Blackfoot Mountains. Surrounded by natural beauty, from the lava
fields of Craters of the Moon to the jagged peaks of the Grand Tetons,
"The Falls" has everything you'd expect from a major city, including
baseball, horse racing, a symphony orchestra and live theater. Idaho
Falls has gained a national reputation as a beautiful and
family-friendly spot to live or visit. The city of Idaho Falls is
well-integrated into its environment, with a pretty downtown area on
the shores of the Snake River, which runs through town. Clean streets
retain the flavor of the city's founding in the early 1900s. The
spires of an LDS temple are reflected attractively in the river, a
sign of the city's high Mormon population. With convenient access to
many popular attractions, not the least of which is Yellowstone
National Park, Idaho Falls sits in beautiful country. Rafting and
fishing on the Snake River are both great pastimes. Several national
forests, mountain ranges, and a handful of wildlife refuges and
national parks are all within a short drive. An outdoors lover could
spend months exploring this pristine countryside. Idaho Falls is
located along I-15 in eastern Idaho. For more information, select a
