Formed by several hundred thousand years of erosion, the Badlands formations expose the layers of millions of years of the regions history. It is a landscape that makes you feel as though you’ve landed on Mars. On this day trip, we pedal the nice, moderate Badlands Loop Road for just under 30 miles through the heart of the pinnacles and lower shale formations to the other end of the northern segment of Badlands National Park, where we will enjoy a picnic lunch. There are also longer options available if desired. Enjoy close up views of wildlife and take in the breathtaking views of Badlands National Park. Enjoying this area by bicycle is a once in a lifetime opportunity! This tour is customizable. Contact us for more information.

Q&A

Q: What's the age limit for this bike tour? Can kids join?

A: The Badlands bike tour is great for families! Kids as young as 10 can typically join, but it really depends on their biking ability. Make sure they're comfortable on a bike for long stretches. If in doubt, you can contact the tour company to discuss specific age-related concerns.

Q: What if it rains on the day of the tour? Do they reschedule?

A: Great question! The tour provider typically has a rescheduling policy for weather-related cancellations. If it rains, they'll reach out to you as soon as possible to find another date that works. Just make sure to keep an eye on the weather around your booking date! They're pretty flexible.

Q: What should I wear for the bike tour? Any specific gear?

A: You’ll want to wear comfortable clothes suitable for biking—think breathable fabrics! Definitely bring a light jacket, as it can get chilly in the Badlands, especially in the early morning. Don’t forget sunscreen and sunglasses. The tour provides helmets, but if you have a favorite, feel free to bring it along!

Thinking of gifting the Badlands bike tour! Need tips.

I’m planning to gift the Badlands bike tour to my partner for their birthday. Has anyone done it? I love that it’s customizable and includes a picnic lunch! Did you guys bring your own food or use what they provided? Also, how tough is the ride? I want to make sure they’re prepared!

Just got back from the Badlands bike tour—wow!

I did the Badlands bike tour last month, and it was amazing! The views were out of this world, like being on Mars for real. The 30-mile loop was challenging but totally doable. Definitely pack snacks for the picnic—they’ll hit the spot after biking! Highly recommend it for anyone considering it as a gift!
