If you ask just about anyone who isn’t from Idaho, they tend to say that all of Idaho is in “the boonies.” After all, I’m sure we’ve all heard an out-of-towner say that there’s “nothing to do here” or that “Idaho all looks the same.” Right?

But we also know that those people are wrong. There’s is plenty to do and see in middle-of-nowhere Idaho and we’ll prove it!

In fact, these places that are seemingly lost from civilization in Idaho are actually thriving hot spots in their own way because really, “the boonies” are where it’s at. Check out these diverse places in the Gem State that are worth the time and effort to find.
