Shoshone Falls Park main viewing platform

The city gives 75 feet from the nearest space to the main platform, approximately 150 feet return from that space. Other parking spaces and optional canyon-rim walking add distance.

The city identifies stair-free, ADA-accessible viewing opportunities. The nearest-platform distance is not a promise that every parking space is equally close.

Where to start

City park at 4155 Shoshone Falls Grade Road, Twin Falls. Five pull-through RV/tour-bus spaces are day use only; overnight parking is not allowed.

Timing & water

Open year-round except temporary poor-road-condition closures, dawn to dusk. Spring snowmelt usually provides the strongest flow; irrigation and reservoir operations can leave very little water in fall.

Before you go

The city lists a $5 vehicle fee from March 1 through fall. No advance reservation requirement is stated on the reviewed page.
