2026 Custer State Park Buffalo Roundup - Sept 25 Only - Public

2 days (approximately)
Offered in: English

Buffalo Roundup -
Custer State Park in the beautiful Black Hills of western South Dakota is full of lush forests, quiet and serene meadows, and majestic mountains. This 71,000-acre state park is also home to one of the world's largest publicly-owned bison herds 1,400 strong. Each fall, the ground rumbles & the dust flies as cowboys, cowgirls and park crews saddle up to bring in the thundering herd. 

This tour includes early morning departure from Rapid City. We enter the South Parking lot of the Park without any waiting. On arrival your guide will explain what to expect for the day. You will get a folding bag chair and you may find anywhere to sit. Later we will have a continental breakfast ready with hot beverages. The Roundup begins about 9'ish and concludes around 11'ish. Once the bison are in the corrals you can board a special bus that takes you down to the pens. Here they brand and vancinate. They have a lunch available. At designated time you return by bus and we depart home.
