Did you know that around 37 million people visit Idaho every year? They come from all corners of the United States and the globe. Why do they come to Idaho? It’s because the Gem State is a land of experiences.

In the winter, you can ski at one of the state’s many ski resorts or go on a snowmobiling trip. In the summer, you can take river rafting trips down the Salmon River or the Snake River. There’s so much to see and do. Here are three reasons to visit Idaho this year.​

Accessible Outdoor Experiences Close to Metro Areas

Many visitors come through Boise, the capital and the largest city. It’s also part of the state's largest metro area, and there are countless, highly accessible outdoor experiences close by.

In the winter, you’re a short drive away from a local ski resort. There are also dozens of hiking and biking trails in the immediate area (some open year-round). Enjoy a day of adventure and then come back to the city for a relaxing night out!

Experiences Throughout the Year 

Another reason so many people visit Idaho is that no matter the time of year, there’s always something to do. This winter (or next), you can go on the weekend snowmobiling tours Idaho is known for.

These day tours take you out of the metro areas and put you into Idaho’s wilderness, like the Payette National Forest (north of Boise). Of course, that’s just one of the many winter activities you’ll find in the state, along with snowshoeing, skiing, and visiting hot springs.

Experiences You Won’t Find Anywhere Else 

Idaho is also a state where you’ll find experiences you won’t find anywhere else in the country (or, in some cases, anywhere else in the world). If you go Snake River rafting Idaho, you’ll pass through Hells Canyon, the deepest river gorge in North America.

If you visit Bruneau Dunes State Park (south of Boise), you’ll get to climb the tallest single dune in North America, at about 450 feet tall. In central Idaho, there’s Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve, a stark and unique landscape with excellent hiking!
