Buffalo Gap National Grassland

Looking for a wide-open expanse of land to pitch your tent and watch the world go by? The Buffalo Gap National Grassland is the second largest of its kind in the country. With very little development or amenities, it’s a truly wild destination with a surprising diversity of plants, animals, and awesome back-country vibes. So what can you do on these 600,000 acres of wild prairie land? You can scope the land for wildlife, including the rare black-footed ferret, hunt for rocks in a rich geological landscape, hike, ride your trusty horse, zip around on your ATV, camp under a blanket of stars, photograph the incredible scenery, and fall in love with the great outdoors. You won’t have to avoid the crowds here, unless of course it’s a herd of buffalo. Get away from it all at Buffalo Gap National Grassland.
