Badlands Tour
Distance: 182 miles
Ride Time: ~3.5 hours
Weave through stone pillars, rugged mountains, and layered formations carved by time.
The Badlands deliver a dramatic mix of chiseled spires, deep canyons, and jagged buttes unlike anything else in the Midwest.
This is an easy, scenic ride — the kind you take slow so you can soak in every viewpoint.
The route winds through Badlands National Park, stretching across Rapid City, Wall, and the wide-open Buffalo Gap National Grasslands.
The farther you ride, the more the landscape feels ancient, raw, and unforgettable.
What This Ride Feels Like
- Wide open horizons that make you feel small in the best way
- Long sweeping curves perfect for a relaxed, thoughtful pace
- Landscapes that shift colors throughout the day — ideal for photography
- A sense of peace and wonder you only get in places shaped by centuries of wind and time
