BADLANDS NATIONAL PARK
Badlands National Park is located in the Rapid City, South Dakota area. Many people plan to visit it, and Mt. Rushmore on the same days. Both are well-worth visiting but are about four hours driving distance from each other.
This national park is best driven through and features dramatic landscapes, layered rock formations, steep canyons and towering spires. Bison, bighorn sheep and prairie dogs inhabit its sprawling grasslands. The Badlands Loop Road (Highway 240) winds past scenic lookouts. Several trails begin near the Ben Reifel Visitor Center. The Fossil Exhibit Trail is a boardwalk with displays on fossils uncovered in the park.
