Twin Falls
What to Expect
Safety Advisory
Grizzly bears are active in the Two Medicine valley. Carry bear spray, make noise on blind corners, and check recent trail reports for closures or warnings before heading out.
The rocks near the base of the falls are perpetually wet and slippery — stay on the established viewpoint rather than scrambling closer for a photo.

Pro Tips
Take the concession boat across Two Medicine Lake to shave about 2.5 miles off the round trip — check the schedule in advance since departures are limited and fill up fast in July and August.
Pair this with a side trip to Upper Two Medicine Lake if you have the energy. The junction is right near Twin Falls, and the extra mile and a half adds a stunning alpine lake with far fewer people.
The falls photograph best in morning light when the sun hits the water but the surrounding rock stays in shadow — afternoon creates harsh glare off the wet cliff face.
