Downey Idaho
Downey is a quiet little city of 650 people nestled below majestic Oxford Peak. They cherish their small town atmosphere and welcome those who wish to visit, play, live, or set up business. Downey’s streets were built wide enough to turn a six-hitch wagon and for the twice a year cattle drives that went through town. Visit Downata Hot Springs and Red Rock Pass just 5 miles south of Downey.
Bannock County Fair
The first weekend in August people come from miles around for the old fashioned Bannock County Fair. The rodeo, parade, exhibits and livestock shows offer the opportunity to experience life in the country first hand. Stay in one of the local campgrounds.
