Spearfish Canyon

This scenic 19-mile drive in the Black Hills that passes cliffs, waterfalls and the Spearfish Creek gives one the feeling they are in the rainforest.

This drive had it all: Tree-covered mountains, picturesque waterfalls and streams, dramatic rock formations, wildlife sightings, the works! It seemed like there was something breathtaking around each bend. There were many spots where you could pull off the road - great for shutterbugs or those wishing to get a closer view of things. A rubberneckers delight!

Bridal Veil Falls

Reviewed By MindyandRogerA - Janesville, United States

Beautiful Waterfall adjacent on Hwy 14A (Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway) south of Spearfish. There is a pull-off, crosswalk and viewing platform that provides an excellent view of the waterfall. Great spot for pictures. With some difficulty, you can climb down to the adjacent stream, remove your shoes and walk across the shallow stream to the base of the falls. Well worth a short stop that is no more than 5 miles south of Spearfish. Access to the platform is possible for almost everyone.

McNenny State Fish Hatchery

This is a beautiful location with huge trout. Very family oriented and lots of fun. One can purchase fish food and feed the trout as much and as often as you want. Right next to City Park Campground.

Spearfish City Park

Reviewed By gingersnaps527 - Spearfish, United States

What is not to love about this park? I stop by at least weekly during non-winter months. The grounds are kept cleaned and mowed. The public bathrooms are clean. There is a large playground area for young children and plenty of benches and picnic tables. Several picnic tables are under awnings. It is located near the D.C Booth National Fish Hatchery which is also fun to spend time. I like to sit on a bench near Spearfish Creek and read. This is a perfect place to spend time.
