Hotels in Twin Falls

Gazing into the Snake River Canyon, you'll understand why daredevil Evel Knievel once attempted to rocket across its vast expanse. Shoshone Falls thunders with such magnificent force it's earned the nickname 'Niagara of the West.' Adventurous souls can zipline over the canyon's rugged terrain or paddle its waters by kayak. The Perrine Bridge offers both spectacular views and a launching point for base jumpers who leap with surprising regularity. Hiking trails wind along the canyon rim, revealing volcanic landscapes that hint at the region's dramatic geological past. After exploring, the historic downtown offers local eateries where conversations inevitably turn to someone's cousin who once saw Evel's failed jump or the latest daredevil to successfully cross the canyon.
