Congratulations on visiting a destination that defies expectations. Whether this is your first time here or you’re a returning friend, we invite you to discover what makes our state special.
As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of our nation’s independence, we encourage you to explore the tribal nations with whom we share geography and learn about their culture and historic contributions. And on July 4, 2026, we’ll proudly open the doors to the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library in the North Dakota Badlands. This world-class destination honors the legacy of our 26th president, who found his passion for conservation in North Dakota.
From our vibrant larger cities to our charming smaller communities, we look forward to greeting you with a friendly “hello” and a sense of belonging. Whether you’re exploring local festivals, discovering unique attractions or shopping at small businesses, you’ll find authenticity at every turn.
Our natural beauty offers endless opportunities to slow down, spread your wings and reconnect. Wander through the rugged Badlands, be inspired by the International Peace Garden or spend a quiet evening beneath the stars in one of 14 state parks. If you’re interested in hiking, biking, hunting, fishing or simply taking in the scenery, North Dakota has year-round adventure waiting for you.
Let this guide be your starting point to uncover what makes North Dakota such a remarkable place to visit as you map your itinerary across our state.
Enjoy the adventure,
Kelly and Kjersti Armstrong
Governor and First Lady
State of North Dakota
