The Welcome to Soda Springs sign, with a depiction of the Soda Springs Geyser.
Soda Springs boasts the largest captive geyser in the world and was featured in "Ripley's Believe It or Not." The geyser, in downtown Soda Springs, erupts every hour on the hour.
Soda Springs is the hub of the Oregon Trail Bear Lake Scenic Byway and the Pioneer Historic Byway in southeast Idaho. For travelers of the mid 1800s, the soda springs that bubbled through the calciferous soil of the area were a welcome rest stop along the Oregon Trail.
