Sun Valley Story Tour

Sun Valley Mining History

The Wood River Museum of History and Culture and Mountain Rides invite you to a one-hour free bus tour highlighting the area’s rich heritage. On this tour, you will learn about the area’s most historic locales, including the Horace Lewis home and the mining history, the Brass Ranch barn and the Union Pacific Railroad’s purchase of the Brass Ranch, the first ski lifts in the world, and more.

Fridays at 10:00 am, from July 11 to August 29.

Advance registration is recommended as space is limited. Sign up in person at the Sun Valley Visitor Center located at 491 Sun Valley Road in Ketchum, or by calling or emailing the Visitor Center at (208) 726-3423 | info@visitsunvalley.com.

For all Friday Sun Valley Story Tours, meet at the Visitor Center at 10am for a prompt departure at 10:15am.

In July, the bus tour may be shortened slightly due to road construction. In the event that the tour is shorter, we will give participants the option of adding a short walking tour within Ketchum at the end. That tour will include the Ore Wagon Museum, historic houses, and the old Congregational Church, and will finish up at the Wood River Museum of History + Culture, which is located 1 block from the Visitor’s Center.
