The South Fork Payette River is a tributary of the Payette River located in Idaho. It flows through the scenic Boise National Forest and is known for its beautiful landscapes, including rugged mountains and dense forests. The river is popular for outdoor activities such as fishing, kayaking, and rafting. The South Fork Payette River is approximately 30 miles long and begins near Banner Summit.
