Many people unfamiliar with Idaho’s unique culture and beauty wouldn’t think that our state has much in the way of world-class…well, anything. But Idaho actually tops the globe in a number of things, world-class skiing opportunities included. But perhaps one of our most impressive man-made achievements is this: Idaho is home to the longest single-stage gondola lift in the world. Forget the Alps or a trip to Vail; this world record-holding gem runs year-round and is open to all ages. This is one attraction you definitely don’t want to miss!
Historic Kellogg, Idaho holds a truly special place in Idaho's history.
The Silver Valley is home to a number of unique communities with a rich history of mining, logging, and intercontinental railroads. It's a scenic 2,600-square mile playground, with Silver Mountain standing watch over much of it.
But just walking through town, it's easy to see that there is something a little different about this hidden gem.
A scenic Silver Mountain Gondola ride starts at $14-18 per person and lasts around 20 minutes. At the end of your your journey, you'll also have the option of being treated to a delicious mountaintop meal at the summit, which often features mouth-watering huckleberry ribs. Yes, please!
No trip up to northern Idaho is complete without this breathtaking ride! Who knew our humble little state held such a neat world record? Be sure to check out the Silver Mountain Resort website for all of the details.
