THE GREAT OUTDOORS
Spearfish Canyon has it all — rugged limestone cliffs, sparkling Spearfish Creek, a lush tree-lined landscape, and three stunning waterfalls.
Head to Spearfish Canyon Nature Area to see Roughlock Falls, Spearfish Falls and Savoy Pond. The nearby trail system offers easy access to these natural landmarks.
Enjoy the views along the drive through Spearfish Canyon Scenic Byway to reach the nature area. At Bridal Veil Falls, stop at the observation deck to view rushing water cascading 60 feet over the canyon walls.
Keep your camera ready to capture active mountain goats, darting fish, and other wildlife that call the canyon home.
