Tips from the community
Named for the US president that once escaped to this corner of the North Dakota backcountry after a family tragedy in 1884, the Theodore Roosevelt National Park mixes badlands with mountains and offers glimpses of the iconic American bison. The reserve is split into three: North, South and Elkhorn. The first sports rugged canyons dotted with colossal boulders. The second is about rolling grass badlands and buffalo. Elkhorn, meanwhile, is the place to go to trace the history of Teddy Roosevelt.
