Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway

The Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway is a 70-mile loop in the Black Hills of western South Dakota, featuring spiraling bridges, hairpin curves, granite tunnels, and awe-inspiring views. The byway travels through Custer State Park, the Norbeck Wildlife Preserve, near Mount Rushmore National Memorial, and the Black Elk National Wilderness Area. It includes portions of Highways 16A, 244, 89, and 87, and offers stunning views of granite pinnacles, mountain lakes, and rocky terrain. Families can enjoy the scenic drive, take in the views, and spot wildlife such as shaggy white mountain goats, deer, and chipmunks. The byway is a great place to visit with family and friends, with many stops for photographs and a visit to Mount Rushmore National Memorial
