Do something you've never done in Southwest Idaho. 🍂

September is one of the best months to explore all of Southwest Idaho. The summer crowds start to slow down, the days are still warm, and the first signs of fall are beginning to show up.

This is your chance to take the scenic drive. Spend a day in a small town you've never explored. Find a new trail, visit a local winery, soak in a hot spring, or plan one last afternoon on the water.
