Hiking Waterfalls Idaho

Known for its rugged Rocky Mountain foothills and Northwest rainforest, Idaho represents gorgeous biodiversity, making the state a bucket list entry for many outdoor tourists. Many of Idaho’s over 60 falls empty into swimmable pools from breathtaking hikes, creating a particularly striking visual payoff at the end of a hike. Thus, Idaho is a natural fit for our successful series.

The book will include detailed hike descriptions, maps, and color photos for approximately 50 of the most scenic waterfall hikes in the area. Hike descriptions also include history, local trivia, and GPS coordinates. Hiking Waterfalls Idaho will take you through state and national parks, forests, monuments and wilderness areas, and from popular city parks to the most remote and secluded corners of the area to view the most spectacular waterfalls.
