Idaho City Just an hour drive from Boise, along scenic Highway 21, is the classic western town of Idaho City, which was for a period of time in the 1860s, the largest city in the Northwest. It was in the Boise Basin, which surrounds present day Idaho City, that gold was first discovered in southern Idaho, and over the next twenty years or so, more than $250,000,000 worth of the precious metal was taken from the basin. Boise County also accounted for much of the early logging activity in Southern Idaho. The wealth produced by mining and logging operations fueled the development of the area well into the twentieth century. Unlkie many former mining towns, however, when the gold ran out and the population shrank, Idaho City refused to die. Today, it is both a thriving community and a living example of the benefits of historical preservation. The oldest buildings in the town date from the 1800s. Hiking trails and campgrounds are plentiful and are criss crossed by plentiful mountain streams.
Only One Hour from Boise!
Go for the Drive.....Stay for the Experience Today Idaho City is a mix of old and new. Modern convenience stores, eating establishments and lodging are available while exploring the old city. Its proximity to a variety of outdoor recreational activities further increases the many reasons to visit!
