Stone State Park

Just outside of Sioux City is Stone State Park, a wilderness oasis that’s still close to all kinds of urban fun. Adventurers love exploring the Loess Hills, and prairies can be enjoyed on a variety of hiking, biking, or horse trails. Come for the spring wildflowers or the winter cross country skiing. An urban wildlife sanctuary, the fauna of foxes, coyotes and rare butterflies will be the highlight of your trailside picnics! And the fishing on the Big Sioux River ain't too shabby either. Be sure to check in with the friendly rangers at the Dorothy Pecaut Nature Center, they love helping Stone State wanderers discover the ultimate in camping and exploring!
