Needles Highway

Well worth the travel. Glad we rented a car, dont think the motorhome would have made it through the tunnels. Do not miss this if you are in the area.

Searching for a hidden gem with photo stops at every turn? The Needle's Hwy IS IT. Plan at 1 full day. For hiking, boat paddling and driving from one awesone stop to the other.

Wow...how do you even put into words how beautiful this drive was?! Can I just take a second and ponder about how in the heck those motor coach buses fit through those tunnels? Like how? Anyways, yes it was beautiful. I would do that drive over and over again. What a way to get a first glance of Mount Rushmore!

Beautiful drive! Well worth the time. Be mindful of vehicle height/width restrictions, they are not a suggestion. We passed a motor home that was stranded with no where to turn around and talked to a guy in a dually that decided that he didn’t want to chance getting his truck scratched going through the tunnels. Lots of wildlife in the area. We enjoyed this scenic drive so much that we drove it again before we left the area.

Just amazing to drive through along with Custer state park and badlands!

Beautiful and worth the time to go on this road. Needles Eye Tunnel is amazing and worth getting out to take photos. We went off season and had more time to enjoy without a long line of cars.

Got lost and so glad we did. The Needles drive was a highlight of our trip. We got stuck in a hail storm driving through. It was great.

Very interesting drive. Watch the youtube videos to see what you are in for before the trip. Children may get nauseated by the twists and turns.

CAN YOU DRIVE A 24 FOOT LONG AND 12 FOOT HIGH MOTORHOME CLASS C ON IT

STUNNING!!!! An absolutely gorgeous must-see part of our trip. We stopped several times to get out and get better views. Bring your binoculars for this one.
