Next, drive through the Black Hills, stop for lunch (own expense) in Custer State Park, thread the Needles Highway, see the Crazy Horse Memorial, and more.

Maximize your time in South Dakota by seeing Black Hills’ highlights all in one day. An air-conditioned vehicle loaded with snacks takes you to famous carved monuments Mt.

There are also stops at Sylvan Lake and Iron Mountain Road, for more Rushmore views.

Get off the beaten path and onto your bike to see the real beauty of the Black Hills! This day tour takes you to some of the quieter and most beautiful areas of the Mickelson trail (where the locals ride) and a taste of South Dakotan produce. A true balance of effort and reward and a great day out! We give the option to stop at one of few breweries up in the Hill City area, with the outdoor Lost Cabin Beer Garden at the Mickelson Trail Burlington Trailhead being a favorite.
