Places To Go

The North Unit is along highway 85 just south of Watford City. The South Unit is on I-94 near Medora. The Elkhorn Ranch Unit is located roughly in the middle, away from all roads.

The park is comprised of three separate areas of land. The North and South Units feature scenic drives, wildlife viewing, hiking, visitor centers, ranger-led programs and much more. The undeveloped Elkhorn Ranch Unit preserves the site of Roosevelt's "home ranch" in a remote area along the Little Missouri River.
