    It was a sorry day when I decided to work with Tina Spielmann at Travel Leaders. She was difficult…read moreand petulant from the beginning. Then she played hardball: on my return from a cruise, she booked me overnight at a stop-over when there were plenty of flights home that same day. My itinerary was not detailed enough, so I did not realize until I was stuck overnight until it was too late. Stay away from her and her travel agency.

    Our experience with Tina Spielmann was a nightmare!!! she is very unprofessional and after she made…read moremany empty promises and had our booking and $'s in her greedy hands. All communication stopped. she did not do one thing for me or our party, seriously.. she could not even respond to and email that one of our guest sent with some questions. We booked one year out and in literally less then two weeks before the trip myself or our guest had not heard form Tina! and then a week before the occasion most guest had not received their tickets!! I booked the same group of 26 people on a cruise with AAA Travel and our experience with Mary Beth was hands down above and beyond!! This occasion was my daughters wedding Tina said she would do all the communication with the wedding planer in Mexico not one email was sent to confirm details. My daughter and I were so embarrassed because we had sent Tina's information to all our guest and promised she would take great care of them and four of our quest mentioned how rude Tina had been. My advice...work with any other travel agency other then Travel Leaders. Happy travels.

    I really enjoyed the 4m hike through this park. The prairie is a beautiful place. We saw lots of…read moreflowers and wild life. I love how the wind blows patterns over the long grass. No trees so bring sunscreen. The nice breeze kept the bugs at bay.

    13 miles of trails throughout! When I went I bypassed the main entrance and went straight for the…read moreVisitor Center's entrance which brought me close to the start of the Burr Trail, Upper Cliff Trail, & Lower Cliff Trail. The Burr Trail was my favorite! It has some steep slopes and rocks poking out of the earth. Definitely go when it's dry or slightly moist. Anything super wet might increase your chances of slippage if you don't have sturdy hiking/walking shoes. This trail also has tree coverage which is great for hot sun days. The Burr Trail leads you to the old quarry at the base of it. The Upper and Lower Cliff Trails are parallel to each other. The Upper Cliff Trail allows you to see the old quarry site from above. Bird's eye views are epic. The Lower Cliff Trail is adjacent to the fencing that separates you and approximately 100 bison. They were quite a bit away - hard to capture in pictures, but still majestic creatures nonetheless! The Lower Cliff Trail also has views toward Rock County, MN and you can see wind turbines spinning in the distance. Both the Upper and Lower Cliff Trails intersect some, so you can change it up and they're relatively flat and easy. There are no trees to shade you from the sun; bring ample water and maybe a rimmed hat and sunnies to shield you from it. There are other trails that lead towards the campgrounds there. I did not do them, so I can't suggest or advise you on them. There is a bike path that appears to loop around much of the park's perimeter and quite possibly lead into town. There's also a rock climbing area (permit required) and a separate lot that takes you there directly. There's no set equipment or anything so you're basically free basing and definitely watch out for cacti! I got to see a few snakes, butterflies, grasshoppers, and a herd of bison, as well as listen to different species of birds. There are also lots of flies/gnats, especially if you stay still and rest at one of the (not so) random benches along the way. The daily parking fee is $7.00. They have different increments for various types or durations of visits. There's a QR Code you can scan with your phone - create an account - and then purchase a parking pass. Bring a pen and paper with you unless you want to write out your confirmation number in blood or boogers. Haha! Since COVID-19 they've automated much of it and no one is around to provide you those for your dash. Happy Trails!
