South Dakota's National & State Parks
In addition to six National Park Service sites—including the epic Badlands National Park, the majestic presidential figures of Mount Rushmore Memorial, one of the longest caves in the world at Jewel Cave National Monument, The Lewis & Clark National Historic Trail which spans 15 other states, the free-flowing stretch of Missouri National Recreation River, the iconic weapon in American nuclear arsenal at Minuteman Missile National Historic Site, and finally, the wild grasslands of Wind Cave National Park.
Meanwhile, the South Dakota State Park system features 63 state parks and recreation areas that showcase the state’s diverse terrain and landscapes. From expanses of prairies, backcountry mountains, plentiful lakes and lush woods with plenty of room to play, South Dakota is rich with great places to get outside, recharge and reconnect. See why we embraced the state motto: "Great Faces, Great Places."
