Day trip to Ketchum: Mountains, Cafes, and Adventures

A scenic drive from the Twin Falls/Jerome KOA, Ketchum makes the perfect day trip for campers seeking small-town charm and mountain views.

Phillip and Liz Mazur took a well-deserved day off to explore the beautiful mountain town of Ketchum, Idaho. Just a scenic drive north from the Twin Falls/Jerome KOA, Ketchum offers the perfect mix of small-town charm, mountain adventure, and a relaxing pace that makes it such a favorite for guests looking to explore beyond the campground.

Their day started with a cozy brunch at The Kneadery a local gem known for its hearty meals.  Afterward, Phillip and Liz wandered through downtown, popping into a few boutique shops and local galleries, before heading out to stretch their legs on the Adams Gulch trailhead. The air was crisp, the aspens were turning gold, and the views of the Sawtooth National Forest were absolutely worth the drive!

By the time they made their way back to Twin Falls, the sun was setting over the Snake River Canyon; a picture perfect ending to a day spent soaking up Idaho’s mountain beauty.

For KOA guests, Ketchum is just one of many easy and unforgettable day trips nearby. Whether you love scenic drives, local food, or fresh mountain trails, adventure is always within reach when you stay at the Twin Falls/Jerome KOA.
