Badlands National Park
Wild geological formations will blow your mind, surrounded by grasslands that stretch forever.
Want to visit the past and see saber-toothed cats? (Okay, fossils of them.) Or stay in the present and check out cute prairie dogs, impressive bison, wild horses and amazing bighorn sheep? How about both, when you visit the legendary South Dakota Badlands?
Hike the Castle Trail or Medicine Root Trail to explore this dramatic scenery up close and personal. Or take in as much as possible in a few hours when you drive the Badlands Loop Road.
You'll feel as if you're on another planet, surrounded by the startling rock formations. The fossil beds in this national park contain the largest group of mammal fossils yet discovered (don't touch them!).
Stay cozy at the Cedar Pass Campground, which offers cute cabins for stays of up to 2 weeks

Some of the most formidable landscapes in the United States also make for some of the greatest adventures.
