Idaho Travel

Ribbed with mountains and peppered with sparkling lakes and wild rivers, Idaho beckons travelers to experience adventure and excitement. Lake Coeur d’Alene, in the northern part of Idaho, offers a wooden boat festival in summer and a spectacular holiday light show in winter. Take the Lake Coeur d’Alene Scenic Byway along the north and east shoreline of the lake spring, summer or fall. Nearby Sandpoint on Lake Pend Oreille is a relaxing vacation destination. Sun Valley, in south central Idaho, offers paragliding and a world-class symphony in summer, skiing and snowkiting in winter. Whitewater river rafting trips are available throughout Idaho.
