Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary

Founded in 1988 by Dayton O. Hyde, the Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary is one of America's greatest private wilderness areas. Located near Hot Springs in southwestern South Dakota, it is owned and operated by the Institute of Range and the American Mustang and is dedicated to giving America's unwanted wild horses a life of freedom. There are hundreds of wild mustangs roaming free across 11,000 acres of wind-swept prairie. Our Visitor Center and Gift Shop are open 9 a.m.-5 p.m., daily. (Please call to let us know you are coming to the shop.) Tours are available year-round, weather permitting. There are two-hour and three-hour options, ranging from $200 per person to $400 per person. Tours depart at 9 a.m. Call for reservations.
