Summer may almost be at an end, but it's still hot out and therefore Idahoans are still looking for ways to cool off. At this point, you might be tired of your local swimming pool or whichever popular lake is your go-to swimming spot. If you're looking to switch it up while the weather is still scorching, plan a visit to this hidden swimming hole that is just a short hike away. This spot is popular among locals, and for good reason. It is downright beautiful. Add a bit of adventure to your next swimming experience and check it out!

Located in Jump Creek Canyon, Jump Creek Falls is the ideal swimming spot to cool off in. Featuring a beautiful waterfall in the gorgeous canyon setting, this swimming hole is just an easy, half mile hike away.

Located outside of Marsing, Idaho, you won't see any tourist crowds here like at the popular lake beaches around Idaho. This is a swimming hole for the locals!

To get there, take Interstate 84 towards Nampa and take the exit that puts you on Highway 55. Drive along 55 for awhile until the highway meets with Highway 95. Follow Highway 95 for about two and a half miles until you get to Poison Creek Road, which eventually intersects with Jump Creek Road.

At the beginning of the trail head is a parking lot. From there, the trail is well-marked and nicely paved with plenty of signage to lead you to the falls.

The short, scenic hike is spectacular. Although a relatively short distance from town, you'll feel like you're way out in the boonies. The canyon can be dreadfully hot and dry during the summer, so remember proper clothing and water!

Jump Creek Canyon is an adventure in itself. Although the hike to the falls is quick, you might want to take some time to explore off the path. As you approach, you'll see the waterfall from afar which is downright striking juxtaposed against the stark canyon landscape.

The magnificent Jump Creek Falls is 60 feet tall and the cascades of water is the perfect source of relief on a hot summer day.

It's one thing to see a breathtaking waterfall like this, and another thing to swim right up to it!

The swimming pool below the falls is like something out of a dream. Surrounded by the colorful canyon walls which are hundreds of feet high, you'll feel like you've taken refuge in a secret oasis that nobody else knows about.

Most likely you can expect to share the space with other swimmers if you go on a weekend. However, if you go on a weekday you might just luck out and have the place to yourself for a truly relaxing and serene soaking experience!

Jump Creek is the ideal swimming hole for a hot day. There's really nothing to dislike about this place! The short hike into the attractive canyon is almost just as great as the picturesque waterfall and swimming pool at the end.

Do exercise caution during your stay at Jump Creek. People have been injured from attempting to jump into the pool and the area is known to be susceptible to falling rocks. Be cautious, but have fun!
