Twin Falls is a city in the south of the US state Idaho. Twin Falls itself has two superlative natural sights (the Snake River Canyon and the Shoshone Falls), but due to its location and its hotel capacities, it is also well suited as an overnight and starting point for visits to the Craters of the Moon National Monument and the Sawtooth National Forest.

Perrine Bridge
Shoshone Falls
- 1 Perrine Memorial Bridge, Route 93 north of Twin Falls, an 8 minute drive north of downtown. The most delightful sight in Twin Falls, which costs nothing to visit, is this bridge over the Snake River Canyon. The arch bridge, opened in 1976, is 457 m long and crosses the river at a height of 148 m. The view is as incredible as the sight of the bridge itself.
- 2 Shoshone Falls, Champlin Rd, a quarter of an hour northeast of downtown. With a width of 300 m and a height of 65 m, these falls form the Snake River, which flows into the Yellowstone National Park rises, one of the largest waterfalls in the American West.Price: $ 3 per car.
