Eastern South Dakota Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The Sioux Falls Park in downtown Sioux Falls is a beautiful park. The stone around the falls is beautiful (a bit reminiscent of Northern Ireland) and there are paths and trails and bridges all around the water. It’s a fun place to explore - even on a rainy afternoon.

Pipestone National Monument is an incredible place. The historical and spiritual significance of the site is palpable. A place of deep reverence and peace. Visit when the sun is low in the west, lighting up the quartzite cliffs as they rise from the vast golden prairie surrounding them.
