FIVE COLORFUL FALL DRIVES Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway

Towering limestone palisades line U.S. 14A as it twists through the 19-mile gorge. Spearfish Creek traces the canyon where Bridal Veil, Spearfish and Roughlock falls are popular roadside attractions. Hikers find wonder exploring side canyons, and cyclists love the broad shoulders and uniform 3 percent grade.

Vanocker Canyon

Enjoy the gentle curves of Nemo Road as you follow Box Elder Creek and pass dense pine, abandoned miner cabins and expansive meadows. Turn into Vanocker Canyon a mile from the town of Nemo. The 17-mile leg twists and curves through three breathtaking canyons that give way to a downhill plunge to Sturgis.

Boulder Canyon

The high-walled valley road of U.S. 14A provides a short, yet sweet 12-mile drive. This relaxing route between Sturgis and Deadwood is especially stunning in the fall when it’s bursting with colorful foliage.

Belle Fourche to Devils Tower

The journey to Devils Tower National Monument takes you through the picturesque Belle Fourche River Valley on SD 34. As you enter Wyoming, the road changes its name to WY 24. The drive passes through the historic coal-mining hub of Aladdin, WY, and climbs through ponderosa pine forests. As you approach the town of Hulett, WY, glimpses of the tower emerge from the ranches and grasslands surrounding the rocky hills.

Badlands Scenic Byway

Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway threads its way around pigtail bridges, through one-lane rock-walled tunnels and ascends to the uppermost heights of the Needles. The route is considered one of the most outstanding byways in America. It travels through portions of Custer State Park, the Norbeck Wildlife Preserve, near Mount Rushmore National Memorial and the Black Elk National Wilderness Area.
