Theodore Roosevelt National Park North Dakota Magnet

A bison grazes on the wide open grasslands amidst the badlands of Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Theodore Roosevelt National Park, located in western North Dakota, was established in 1947 to honor President Theodore Roosevelt's conservation legacy and his connection to the rugged Badlands landscape. The park is divided into three units—South, North, and Elkhorn Ranch—offering breathtaking views, unique geology, and abundant wildlife like bison, elk, and wild horses. Highlights include the scenic drive through the South Unit, the Painted Canyon Overlook, and Roosevelt's historic Elkhorn Ranch site, where he found inspiration for his conservation efforts.
