The Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway is a must-see for new and returning area visitors.
The 70-mile road connects some of South Dakota's most famous landmarks. Sights like Mount Rushmore National Memorial, Crazy Horse Memorial®, and Custer State Park can all be accessed via this route.
The road, which includes Needles Highway, Iron Mountain Road, and Wildlife Loop Road, was forged with dynamite in 1921. In the fall, colors appear in surprising flashes of red, yellow, and orange against the dark green, nearly-black pine backdrops.
