We spent four days visiting Custer State Park, Mt. Rushmore, and the National Forest, and we still did not see it all. Park highlights for us include the Wildlife Loop which we drove once in the af… Full review by phat_dawg_21

Custer State Park is Buffalo country…, if you want to see a large herd or just a few close the the road, try highway 16A. It’s a nice loop through the Black Hills. Full review by Trek42633754745
Planning a trip next summer with our must see's being Badlands, Custer State Park, Mt. Rushmore, Deadwood, Yellowstone, Zion and Bryce. We have 2 nights reserved at Custer State Game Lodge and 2 nights at Yellowstone. I have decided we will fly in rather than drive from WV. Any suggestions for a great itinerary - please share. I have no idea how much time I need to plan for each of the areas and anything that is a must see. We are not "hikers" - mostly want to view scenery and wildlife, but are able to walk 1-2 miles if needed. Thanks!

The Badlands was also fantastic. The landscape makes you feel like you’re on a different planet. I’ve done extensive travel over the course of my life, and I recommend the Badlands. …
The Badlands was also fantastic. The landscape makes you feel like you’re on a different planet. I’ve done extensive travel over the course of my life, and I recommend the Badlands. Again, we were there in late October, and they were very few people.
Has anyone had any experience with the Chuckwagon Dinner? Trying to decide between doing just the half day trail ride that includes lunch or the 2 hour trail ride plus the dinner. Thank you!!!

We stayed in Custer and drove into the Stockade lake area. I never heard of Bluebell but Stockade is really close to the wildlife loop in Custer park. If you enjoy seeing animals I would take a close look at Stockade.
Can you see Rushmore and Crazy Horse in Jewel Cave and one day

Yes, u can but it will be tight time wise. All three activities are very interesting and even though they are not far apart, the roads are winding and there is a lot of wildlife, sometimes …
Yes, u can but it will be tight time wise. All three activities are very interesting and even though they are not far apart, the roads are winding and there is a lot of wildlife, sometimes right on the road. It can be slow going but lots of fun!
Trying to decide if the Black Elk Trail 9 is an ok trail for my kids (age 17, 13, 9, & 8.) We are an athletic family and last year did a 6 mile bike ride on the southern rim of the grand canyon, so we love family physical activities. But hiking to Black Elk Peak (Harney Peak) may be a different, more difficult challenge, than what we are used to. Can an 8 & 9 year old handle the challenge of the Black Elk Trail 9 to the peak?
A:
We hiked the trail in September and saw a number of families going up as we were going down. I don't know how many made it to the top though. Are you familiar with the Alltrails app? …
We hiked the trail in September and saw a number of families going up as we were going down. I don't know how many made it to the top though. Are you familiar with the Alltrails app? A number of people recently posted there of hiking with children. It could help you decide. We didn't think the trail was exceptionally steep, but it can be a long way.
