The border between Canada and Idaho is just 72 kilometres long, but it is a travel crossing point for those living in the interior of British Columbia and in southwestern Alberta.Įvery year, more than 680,000 Canadians visit Idaho, where they spend more than $100 million.
As a border state, Idaho welcomes a large number of Canadian travellers visiting the state’s many attractions, passing through to warmer climes, or dropping by one of the many casinos that dot the region.
