One of the most popular tourist attractions in the state has people coming from all over the country to revel in its wonder. Shoshone Falls in Idaho draws constant comparison to the more well-known Niagara Falls, and it’s even called the “Niagara of the West.” However, many would argue that Shoshone Falls is the more impressive of the two as they are 45 feet higher than their eastern counterpart! There’s no doubt that when searching for the best waterfalls in Idaho, these falls can’t be skipped.
The epic, roaring flow of water is the result of the narrowing of the Snake River to just 400 feet wide before the water makes the plunge over the 212-foot tall and 925-foot wide cliff.
