Idaho’s world famous Balanced Rock is one of our most unique local rock formations. See this over 48 feet tall and 40 ton rock as it balances precariously on a “neck” of only 3 feet by 17 inches wide! This wind carved monument shows the power of nature.
Pack a picnic lunch, see the unique rock formation and then enjoy the rest of your day relaxing along the stream in the nearby Balanced Rock County Park. Bring a kayak, go fishing, hike Salmon Falls Creek Canyon or stay a little while longer and pitch a tent or bring your RV (up to 37’).
Camping is free on this BLM land. No reservations and on a first come, first served basis. No RV hookups. If tent camping, please note that sprinklers water the grassy area Monday night through Thursday night.
Distance from Twin Falls Cottages – 27 Miles.
Incredible 40 ton rock structure – OVER 48 FEET tall with a 3 FEET by 17 INCHES base!

When you first enter the park, you will find a well maintained grassy area with covered picnic tables and a small covered pavilion along Salmon Falls Creek in this beautiful canyon park. Camp along the canyon wall and enjoy the creek. Hike or kayak further up into the canyon and be surrounded by the serene and quiet nature scenery.
Beautiful rock walls line Salmon Falls Creek Canyon. I personally see a rabbit face in this specific rock formation. Do you see it? When you visit the park, you can find this rabbit face rock formation right along the creek side.
