Boone is a historic city located in central Iowa, United States, known for its rich railroad heritage and natural attractions. Founded in 1865, the city was named after Nathan Boone, the youngest son of famous frontiersman Daniel Boone. The city's development was closely tied to the arrival of the Chicago & North Western Railroad in the late 19th century, which established Boone as an important railway hub.

Today, this railroad heritage is preserved through attractions like the Boone & Scenic Valley Railroad, which offers visitors historic train rides through the Des Moines River Valley. The city is also home to several cultural institutions that help preserve and share the area's history and artistic endeavors.

The surrounding area features notable outdoor recreational spaces, including Ledges State Park, known for its unique sandstone formations and hiking trails.
