Looking for a spooky adventure to go on before October comes to an end?

Did you know one of Idaho's best-preserved ghost towns is tucked away in the Owyhee Mountains? 👻

Silver City was once a booming mining town but is now a great place to explore Idaho's history, with its original buildings, historic streets, and beautiful mountain scenery.

It's one of those hidden gems worth adding to your Southwest Idaho bucket list!

Save this for a future road trip, and be sure to check seasonal road conditions before visiting.

This museum in Southwest Idaho is a hidden gem for aviation lovers...

But we have a feeling everyone will love it.

The Warhawk Air Museum is tucked away beside a small airport in Nampa, Idaho. If you drive by it and blink, you might miss it, but we promise it's worth a visit.

The museum is an experience for all ages that allows you to step into our history's biggest moments. From WWII, 9/11, and so much more.

The Warhawk Air Museum is about a 30 minute drive from Boise, located at 201 Municipal Dr in Nampa.

If you're looking for something unique to do while visiting, this is one adventure we recommend you add to your list.

For more information on the Warhawk Air Museum, take a look at this article here: https://shorturl.at/o7BTp

You can’t have a road trip without having lunch or dinner spots planned along the way.

We pulled together these five lunch (or dinner) spots we think are well worth the drive.

Grab lunch, explore the area while you’re there, and you’ve got yourself a pretty great Southwest Idaho day trip.

Save this post for the next time someone asks, “Where should we eat?” and tell us which lunch spot we need to visit next. 👇

Looking for the perfect drive that gets you out of the city and into the mountains?

One that drives you through historic small towns, through winding roads, endless gorgeous scenery, hidden hot springs, and all the reasons to pull over...

Add any of Southwest Idaho's Scenic Byways to your itinerary when visiting. But if you want a route to plan now, we recommend the Ponderosa Pine Scenic Byway; perfect for all things fall foliage.

Here’s your route:
☕ Start in Boise and grab a cup of coffee to hit the road early.

🍁 Make your first stop in Idaho City. Walk around historic downtown, grab a bite to eat, and explore a little Gold Rush history.

🌲 Drive the Ponderosa Pine Scenic Byway toward Lowman and stop along the way for mountain views and fall colors.

📍Stop in Lowman to stretch your legs, explore the area, and make time for a hot springs stop.
