30 Of The Best-Rated Free Things To Do In Idaho That Will Cure Your Summer Boredom

Summer can be one of the most memorable seasons to experience in Idaho. Sure, it can be hot, but Idaho offers so much to do that you won't worry about it. Plus, there are ways to stay cool anyway, right?

Money is an object for all of us

Summertime boredom can be real, especially if you feel like all of the fun activities cost money. On the other hand, staying inside to avoid the heat is its own dilemma - sure, you can go for a walk around the neighborhood but you'll always feel the wrath of a thousand scorching suns after being out there a bit.

Adding to the frustration is the fact that everything seems to get more expensive in the summer. You likely don't want to go anywhere by yourself (if you do, power to you) so you'll need to account for the cost of your party. If you have kids, you know the cost can start rising quickly - even simple activities like going to the movies can come with a chunky price tag.

Entertaining yourself in the summer without breaking the bank is a challenge

Maybe it's temporary because we're in an election year or perhaps we're simply suffering from the staggering effects of inflation. No matter what the root cause is, we're in the thick of it and prices don't seem to be going down any time soon.

Have you seen your grocery bill lately?

So, rather than have you break the bank and spend much-needed cash on things to keep entertained, we compiled thirty things you can do in Idaho that are not only free, but also the highest-rated according to TripAdvisor.
