Minidoka National Reserve

The reserve is located on the plain of the Snake River in the south-central region of Idaho. The territory of the reserve occupies about 130 kilometers of coastline in the area of Lake Walcott. Almost half of the reserve is occupied by wetlands, which serve as a habitat for numerous species of wild animals.

The climate is mostly semi-arid, summers are hot and dry, with severe thunderstorms during rains. Tourists are recommended to visit the reserve in late summer or early autumn - when on its territory you can see a large number of birds gathered on the territory during flights.
