The county seat is Caldwell, and its largest city is Nampa. The County Courthouse is the hub of county government. The Canyon County Fair, the Caldwell Night Rodeo (a national top 5 ranked event), Buckaroo Breakfast and Fiesta de Mayo (the valley's only Hispanic heritage fiesta) are just a few of the places and events celebrated here.
The valley is surrounded by the Owyhee, Weiser and Boise mountain ranges that rise steeply to 8-9,000 feet above sea level and range in distance from eight to twenty miles away from Caldwell, surrounding the Treasure Valley. The slopes are partly covered with sagebrush, which gives way to chaparral, then to ridges of fir, pine, spruce and juniper.
Recreational activities are a highlight of Idaho and the Canyon County area provides access to a variety of enthusiasts from rock hounds to river rafters, skiers to hot springs lovers, trail riders to hikers and much, much more. And Caldwell, at Christmas time, is a sight to behold!
