About

Located in the heart of the North Dakota Badlands, Rough Rider State Park is just minutes away from the historic town of Medora and Theodore Roosevelt National Park. This park offers a quiet escape from these popular tourist destinations. Rough Rider is the perfect spot for visitors seeking adventure. Horseback riding, hiking and biking are also popular activities. The park provides access to the 144-mile long Maah Daah Hey Trail, which traverses the Little Missouri National Grassland. In the early spring, canoeing and kayaking the Little Missouri River is a popular activity. Traversing the 274-mile long Little Missouri River offers a unique perspective of the badlands from North Dakota’s only State Scenic River
