As a Midwest destination, North Dakota defines the region in terms of wide-open spaces, agriculture, free-range livestock, an interesting history, friendly folks, and importance in family fun. Children will enjoy the Toy Farmer Museum where they can marvel at the vintage toy collection of yesteryear when the work was harder, but life was simpler. The Fargo Air Museum is fun for all ages, particularly those with a fondness for aviation. And the Sitting Bull Burial State Historic site honors the legendary Native American chief and his important and indelible mark on American history. If you’re looking for history as well as adventure, hiking along the Lewis and Clark trail is a must, while mountain bikers can ride the Maah Daah Hey Trail, one of the top-ranked mountain biking trails in America. Jeep drivers, motorcycle riders, and ATV riders will enjoy speeding along the miles upon miles of dirt roads and off-road trails that wind through the badlands. Hunting is also popular here. For example, Kenmare is the snow goose capital of America! The open prairie is also a great spot for hunting small game. As for spectator sports, Turtle Lake’s United States Turtle Racing Championship and Killdeer Mountain Roundup Rodeo are must-sees. North Dakota is also known for its beef, so hungry visitors should mosey on down to Rutland, home of the biggest hamburger in the world, topping over 3,500 pounds! And here’s a little known fact outside the state, Dakota is actually a Sioux term for friends, so there’s a good chance that in North Dakota, you just might make some new ones, whether for business or pleasure!
