Highways and Paved RoadsMost visits to Wind Cave National Park take you on US Highway 385 or South Dakota Highway 87, the two main paved roads in the park. Both offer scenic views as well as many pullouts with wayside exhibits and parking for enjoying the scenery or watching wildlife. Backcountry RoadsGravel roads NPS 5 and NPS 6 explore the less-developed northern and eastern areas of the park. These backcountry roads are generally well-maintained and suitable for most passenger cars and trucks, however, winter maintenence is not performed on these roads. Please note:
BikingWant to feel the wind in your face while sightseeing? Bicycling offers visitors a great opportunity to actively experience and enjoy the abundant resources of the park. |
