Visit Riggins
Riggins is a small town nestled in the Salmon River Canyon of central Idaho. The protective canyon, combined with the 1800-foot elevation, produces a temperate climate year-round. This spectacular setting plus the comforts and hospitality found at The Salmon Rapids Lodge make Riggins an ideal home-base to explore the major national forests and scenic areas of the West.
