It's one of the most beautiful places in the area. It contains over 1500 Bison, amazing lakes, and all kinds of other wildlife.
You could spend a full day here! Be sure to see needles Hwy and find the bison on the wildlife loop!
If you are looking for a scenic drive or an adventurous hike Custer State Park is the place to visit! Drive the wildlife loop to see buffalo, begging burros, deer, elk, pronghorns, prairie dogs, and countless other wildlife. Needles Highway and Iron Mountain Road are a couple of the breathtaking drives you can do. CSP offers several hikes and hosts a hiking challenge every summer. Several lakes and fishing spots are also throughout the park. Sylvan Lake is a must see! Go early to find parking! Walk around the lake or take the Sunday Gulch Trail around the back for more adventure! Have you found Poets Table yet? A must see and one of our favorite places to go!
