Welcome To Fall in Boise County, Idaho,
the gateway to an authentic Central Idaho Mountains adventure. Come be energized by the brisk Fall days and nights. Shop for locally crafted items. Play a round of golf. Take a hike. Ride a horse. Celebrate our pioneer past. Check out some hot springs. YES, IT ALL STILL HAPPENS HERE IN THE FALL! The seasonal changes in this central Idaho mountain location boast numerous recreational activities. Each season is distinctive and unique with picturesque beauty and wildlife to be viewed at every vista. Fall brings gorgeous colors ablaze among the majestic ponderosa pine, Douglas fir and grand fir. Quaking aspen, mountain maple, alder, ninebark, spirea, and snowberry are just a few of the shrubs contributing a burst of color to the streams, rivers, valleys and mountain peaks of Boise County.
Take the Scenic Byway Loop, or explore some of the backroads that stretch between the towns throughout the County.
Only One Hour From Boise!

Idaho City Just an hour drive from Boise, along scenic Highway 21, is the classic western town of Idaho City. Getting There
Idaho City is easily accessible via Highway 21, just 45 minutes from Boise. Highway 21 is also part of the Ponderosa Pine Scenic Byway, which runs from Boise to Stanley, winding through the Boise National Forest, passing dense forests of pine, across high mountain valleys and along portions of the Boise River, Lucky Peak, Mores Creek and the South Fork of the Payette River. Another scenic route to take back to Boise is to head west from Idaho City to Placerville, and check out the charming town square. From there, head 17 miles east to Horseshoe Bend and back into Boise. Or for a real road trip, continue through Lowman, Stanley and SunValley before you head back to I-84.

Horseshoe Bend Horseshoe Bend was originally settled
as a gold miners’ staging area, as prospectors waited along the river for snows to thaw at the higher elevations. Gold had been discovered in 1862 in the Boise Basin mountains to the east, near Idaho City. The settlement became known as Warrinersville, after a local sawmill operator. The name was changed to Horseshoe Bend in 1867 for its location at the horseshoe-shaped U-turn of the Payette River. After the gold rush quieted, the city became a prosperous ranching and logging community. The railroad, from Emmett up to Long Valley following the Payette River (its North Fork above Banks), was completed in 1913. However, the railroad is not currently in use. The town’s current culture is a blend of ranching and is a growing bedroom community for Boise.
