Labor Day has come and gone, the weather is finally cooling down, and the leaves are gradually starting to change. It seems like we can finally say goodbye to summer, and that means saying hello to one of the most beautiful times to be in Idaho. Fall is especially magical for many reasons, but the changing of the leaves from their luscious green to golden yellows and crimson reds is by far the most amazing. Thanks to this interactive map from Smoky Mountains, you can now know exactly when to see fall colors in Idaho.
Wondering when to expect peak fall foliage in Idaho? Wonder no more!
As you can see on the interactive Smoky Mountains map, a large portion of central and southern Idaho will be either at or just past peak by October 10.
During this time, places like Boise and Sun Valley are likely to see a wide variety of Idaho fall foliage.
The map warns that there is no real way to be 100 percent accurate when it comes to predicting fall foliage viewing times. It all depends on what type of year it is.
However, it's a pretty good place to start when looking for that specific place to see peak foliage in Idaho.
If you're interested in going on a scenic autumn excursion this year, you best start planning right away. The window of time is short before the leaves begin to fall and once they do, you'll have even less time.
A nice day hike or a long drive on one of our state's scenic byways are the perfect way to take in all of this autumn beauty! You definitely don't want to miss out on this gorgeous occurrence.
Take a look at the Smoky Mountains Fall Foliage Map to learn when to see fall colors in Idaho as well as everywhere else in the country!
