The different and spectacular views of 14 mile section of SD 87 offers wilderness, rock formations, wildlife, water and much more. Switchbacks, tight turns, narrow tunnels and world class views are everything you can expect. The roads name comes from the needle-like granite formations that pierce the horizon along the highway.nnThe speeds are usually 25 mph or less and the travel time is 45 minutes to an 1 hour without stops. Needles Highway is not RV friendly. I would definitely recommend and would return.
Lots of traffic and winding roads. Couple tight squeezes with the truck going through but a beautiful place to go see. Highly recommend doing this at least one time in your life. Lots of wildlife and areas to pull over and explore
This is my favorite drive in the black hills. We saw so many buffalo, deer, pronghorn, and big horn sheep on our trip. It was amazing. The views, the rocks, the wildlife.... it's a great way to break away. Its busy around sturgis, so go before late July/early August if you want to avoid the crowd.
This is a beautiful road. Be prepared, If you're on a motorcycle it's $20 per bike to ride through. Your national park passport won't work. It's a state park.
Never knew that Norbeck designed tunnels to frame Mt Rushmore as one drives through them....very awesome,, very scenic, twisty, turny, mountain road. Not for those who are fearful of high places or roads that go straight down on one side and straight up o the other!
