From top to bottom, Sun Valley is full of surprises. Only in this fascinating pocket of central Idaho can you experience an annual heritage festival that parades thousands of sheep from the mountains to Main Street by day, then discover some of the darkest night skies in the world for mind-blowing star gazing.

The Roundhouse The Roundhouse, a staple of Sun Valley Resort since 1939, elevates any dining experience—literally. Located 7,700 feet above sea level on Bald Mountain, the restaurant has been a featured fine dining spot since 1939, and is open seasonally, December through March.
