Sturgis and Beyond: South Dakota Adventures
Manage episode 502562439 series 2990715
Thinking about visiting Sturgis, South Dakota? We spent a month there and saw so much. Parking our RV right above downtown gave us a front-row seat to the energy of the rally town. Day trips to Deadwood are a must if you want to catch live Old West shootouts, while drives along the Needles Highway deliver jaw-dropping granite spires and tunnels you won’t forget.
Of course, no visit is complete without seeing the iconic Mount Rushmore or experiencing a day at the Full Throttle Saloon—the largest biker bar in the world.
For nature lovers, Custer State Park offers incredible wildlife encounters (watch for bison herds blocking the road), and the Badlands will leave you in awe with its otherworldly landscapes. If you’re there in July, don’t miss the Fourth of July fireworks over downtown—it’s unforgettable.
We also share what it’s like to experience Sturgis outside of the rally, make new friends along the way, and how I found the courage to perform my first solo show since my health scare. 🎶
