Where the Waterfalls Are

Cascade sits in or near the Central Idaho Mountains area of Idaho. This is Idaho's wild interior, a sprawling granite highland broken by some of the deepest canyons in the country. Falls here range from roadside drops near Idaho City and Cascade to remote cascades in the Sawtooth and Salmon River country around Challis and Salmon. Idaho County holds the most, including Selway Falls, a powerful series of drops on the Selway River. Many falls in this region lie in national forest and wilderness, reached by long gravel roads or backcountry trails. The landscape rewards travelers who are comfortable with remote driving, limited services and changeable mountain weather. Read the Idaho waterfall guide.
