Experience breathtaking vistas from the comfort of your vehicle on Eastern Idaho’s scenic byways and backroads. The Mesa Falls Scenic Byway winds through lodgepole pine forests to roaring waterfalls and historic sites, while the Teton Scenic Byway, a favorite Grand Teton Scenic Drive, offers unmatched views of the Tetons’ western face. The Teton Valley Scenic Loop encircles idyllic farmland with constant mountain backdrops, and Pine Creek Pass comes alive in the fall with brilliant crimson, gold, and orange foliage.

For history lovers, the Fort Henry Historic Byway traces a pioneer trail through Island Park’s rugged beauty, and the Lost Gold Trails Loop explores mining country filled with fascinating sites and mountain vistas. Wildlife watchers will enjoy the quiet backroads near Camas National Wildlife Refuge, home to migratory birds and large mammals. With light traffic and frequent pullouts for photography, these drives invite you to slow down and savor Eastern Idaho’s diverse landscapes—from alpine forests to rolling farmland and dramatic peaks.
