I never even had heard of this national park before. The trails aren't intense at all and there are some opportunities to see bison. Absolutely loved their small gift shop. It had lots of cool things and even a small video showing for visitors to watch. I'd like to visit the South unit one day.

The Fort Union Trading Post sits right on the boundary line between North Dakota and Montana…read more You'll actually cross back and forth over the line as you enter and leave the Post. In the 1800s Fort Union was alongside the Missouri River and steamboats were a common sight. But the River has changed course since those days and now flows about a mile further away. It's easy to see the old, dry riverbed right next to the Fort. This is an out of the way historical site. It's quiet and peaceful and here you'll hear the whispering of the North Dakota winds. For us Fort Union is very evocative of the early days of the frontier, and WELL WORTH A VISIT.

This little gem of a park was listed on our ND 12 months/12 hikes list & we decided it was the perfect time to give it a try. It's located just outside of Roosevelt National Park & the terrain is very similar. We hiked out through badlands and grasslands vegetation. At times, the overgrowth was chest deep & there are several thorny plants covering the trails, as well as cacti. My legs were pretty well shredded. Be sure to load a map prior to heading out, as there is very limited cell service & we hit quite a few spots where the trail split with no signs / areas where there was no visible trail split, but you needed to walk a few feet over from the trail you were on to get on the trail you need to be on - very frustrating to have to double back to find it, when not actively tracking progress. Mosquitoes are almost as thick as the grasshoppers and there's a lot of open area- bring bug repellent if they find you tasty & sun protection, along with plenty of water. Watch for washouts/ trail closure signs. You'll likely see deer & cows, possibly snakes. The views are magnificent at times, especially at the start/finish. Fabulous sunset on the way out too! Before we left, we filled our bottles with nice, cold water from the fill station.

Facilities were super clean, sites were spacious and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Showers were especially clean (possibly cleaner than my home shower ) and are free to registered campers! Be sure to catch Ranger Shawn while you're around. He had some great insight on good trails and went above and beyond to make sure we had a comfortable stay and a good time while at the park.

A lovely ride and a great view from the tower. Be aware tho, she moves if it's breezy- yowza!!read more

It was my first experience in North Dakota! If you like…read moreprairies, this is a gem that you must put it on your list! We went to a tower that is build for visitors to enjoy the scenery from a higher level. Unfortunately the last 30% to get to the top was locked but we could still enjoy the beauty of the area. The trail is perfect for hiking and all you can hear is the wind and crickets. It's far from civilization and that what makes it even more attractive and peaceful! When we wanted to use the washrooms (maybe I should say restrooms! Haha) I noticed it was nice, well maintained and clean which shows the level of care this place gets. You can easily spend hours for hiking just make sure you have water and some protein bars just in case you have a long way back to your vehicle! I highly recommend this place and I'm sure I'll go back there next time I'm in the area! :)
