Waterfall Hikes in Idaho (ID)
to explore
Idaho's waterfalls arise where high mountain ranges—the Bitterroots and Sawtooths—and their glacial cirques drop into deep river gorges and basalt canyon country across the Snake River Plain and high desert plateaus. Hikes tend toward moderate backcountry treks and creekside approaches with occasional short, family-friendly or roadside stops, and the state's distinctive contrasts between alpine, forested drainages and arid basalt canyons produce dramatic elevation drops and strongly seasonal flows.
