SUN VALLEY
FAVORITES

ACTIVITIES

  • Fly Fishing: We love going out on the river with guides from Sun Valley Outfitters.

  • Spa at Zenergy: Get steam, sauna, gym, and pool access with a spa treatment.

  • Bike Riding to River Run or Sun Valley Lodge. Often there are horses grazing on these paths.

  • Golf at the Sun Valley Resort or at one of the many other options in the Valley.

  • Redfish Lake in Stanley, Idaho is a hour drive from Sun Valley. If you have the time, it’s a beautiful day trip to see the Sawtooth Mountains. Tons of hiking trails for all levels. Boat rental available as well!

HIKING

  • Adams Gulch: 6.1 mile loop with a variety of terrain. Beautiful wildflowers!

  • White Clouds: 4 mile loop right across from the Sun Valley Lodge.

  • Scenic Overlook Bald Mountain Trail: 3.5 mile out-and-back trail. Amazing views of town.

  • Galena Lodge: Galena is a 30-minute drive from Sun Valley with many trail options. Stop in the lodge before your hike and ask if you can take Bandit or another dog out on your hike. Restaurant is great for lunch and post-hike drink!

RESTAURANTS

For lunch…

  • Grumpys: A classic in town. We’d recommend the burger and a schooner of beer (or two)! Perfect for post-hike.

  • Warfield Distillery & Brewery: Incredible views on rooftop! Great place to grab a drink or lunch. Spencer’s favorite is the Plowman’s Board.

  • Despo’s: Casual Mexican food spot. Our guilty pleasure is the Texas Taco.

For dinner…

  • Rickshaw: Yummy Southeast Asian food. Ask for a table on the patio! We love the K.F.C. Walk-ins only.

  • CK’s Real Food: Amazing local and sustainable food. Our favorite “fancier” spot for dinner. Save room for the carrot cake! Located in Hailey, Idaho about 20 minutes from Ketchum.

  • Pioneer Saloon: An iconic Ketchum staple that serves Idaho potatoes, steak, and fish in a Western-themed setting. The Pio is the proud owner of one of Ernest Hemingway’s guns. We love the Jim Spud. Walk-ins only.

DRINKS

For breakfast…

  • Ginger Sweet: Recover with cold-press juice or smoothies. Sarah’s favorite juice is the Serenity.

  • Java on 4th: Coffee shop. In the morning, Spencer’s dad, Dave Rogers, can be found leaving there with 2 large cups of black coffee for himself and another one for Vicky.

For pre-events…

For post-events…

  • The Cellar Pub: Spencer’s favorite bar in town.

  • Casino Bar: Not an actual casino. Enjoy a cold Rainier and go shoot some pool at the local dive bar!

  • Whiskey’s: Formerly known as Whiskey Jacques (RIP). Live music and dancing.
