Small Cities, Big History

Each charming city is a gateway to the area’s beautiful countryside, offering easy access to attractions like the Snake River, City of Rocks Scenic Byway, Lake Cleveland, Pomerelle Mountain Resort, and hundreds of fishing spots and hiking trails.

Super Snowpack

Pomerelle Mountain Resort offers excitement for both novice and experienced skiers. The mountain has 22 runs, two terrain parks, and a vertical drop of 1,000 feet. Snowmobiling and tubing are available, too — and every activity comes with a jaw-dropping view of the Magic Valley. But you don’t have to wait for winter: Pomerelle is open on weekends from July 4 through Labor Day for hikers and sightseers.

Gorgeous Lakes

Make Lake Walcott State Park and National Wildlife Refuge your go-to weekend getaway, with beautifully maintained camping, fishing, and picnic areas. If you prefer areas that are a bit more untamed, try Lake Cleveland, a crater lake surrounded by flowers, or the remote and wild Independence Lakes.
