Twin Falls, Idaho is a picturesque small town with a big reputation. Home to the majestic Shoshone Falls, often referred to as the “Niagara of the West”, Twin Falls is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to explore the great outdoors. The best time to visit the falls is in the spring, when the ice has melted and the water is at its fullest. For those seeking an adrenaline rush, Twin Falls is also home to one of the most popular BASE jumping sites in the world.
The Perrine Bridge offers jumpers an incredible view of the Snake River Canyon and is a great place to take your first BASE jump with an experienced instructor. The Centennial Waterfront Park is another great spot for outdoor activities. Here you can access the Snake River and take in the stunning views of the canyon. If you find yourself in Twin Falls on a rainy day, there are plenty of indoor activities to keep you entertained.
Downtown Twin Falls has been recently renovated and includes a beautiful plaza called Downtown Commons. The Sawtooth National Forest is also nearby and covers an impressive 854,052 ha (2,110,408 acres) in Idaho and Utah. If you’re looking for a great photo opportunity, head to the Twin Falls Visitor Center for a view of Perrine Falls from above. Twin Falls also has a vibrant beer scene with several local breweries such as Koto Brewery, Milner's Gate and Magic Valley Brewing.
There are also plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy such as a hummingbird sanctuary, botanical garden and hiking trails. If you’re visiting Twin Falls during the Twin Falls County Fair, you won’t want to miss out on all the carnival attractions for all ages.
