Parks & Nature

Great single track riding and hiking on Scouts Trail, wheelchair accessible trail loop around the campground along the river, On-A-Slant Mandan village with earth houses and interpretive tours, Custer House, stables, barracks, Commisary with a store and snack bar. Custer's 7th Cavalry rode out to their doom from this post, never to return from the Little Big Horn. Lots of interesting Native American and military history to see here, and a great place to hike, ride, and fish.

13 miles of single track hiking and mtn biking trails. A very nice public beach with a playground. Free admission. Beautiful spot. About a 20 minute drive from the apartment. They have kayak and SUP rentals in the summer. Powerboats are allowed on the lake but it is "wake-free" so very kayak friendly. Worth the drive from Bismarck!
