RIDE THE RIVER We invite you to explore the Missouri River as it meanders through the central part of South Dakota. Travel past numerous communities with hometown festivals, experience rodeos and powwows celebrating our many traditions. Cruise the river aboard the “Sunset” an authentic paddle wheeler or amble on horseback across the countryside at a leisurely pace. Follow in the footsteps of explorers “Lewis and Clark” who traveled up the river in 1804 searching for a passage to the Pacific Ocean. PLAY OR RELAX Outdoor adventure at its best – you’ll find it on the shores of the Missouri River. Experience world-class fishing and hunting, boating, kayaking, hiking, birding and much more. Explore historic sites, Native American culture and numerous museums along the way. Visit “Dignity,” a 50-foot statue, located at the Chamberlain, SD Information Center. Her outstretched arms invite us into her blanket where we can learn from each other, acknowledge our differences and celebrate our similarities. Visit the South Dakota State Capitol in Pierre and see its 1910 beauty. The charm of the Missouri River invites you to come and play, explore or simply kick back and relax.
