Best places: Hiking areas in Martin, United States

Badlands' main visitor center, open year-round, offering maps, exhibits, a theater & a bookstore.

Short boardwalk path leading to a panoramic opening in the Badlands Wall known as the Door.

0.5-mi. loop beneath the Badlands Wall formation noted for its juniper forest & other vegetation.

👍👍 Nice, slick, climb to the highest point. Beautiful views. My 'scared of heights' kiddo even climbed to the upper Ridge that meets Castle trail. Also took 13yo and 7yo, the latter was the fastest up and down by far.

👍 This is another very short, boardwalk trail Just .25 miles long, the trail ends at the window, a viewpoint of "the Wall" and the pinnacles and spires that make the badlands so famous. If you want to walk an easy trail but still get a good feel for the topography, this is definitely the best choice....
