Sand Hills
Gentle rivers meander along pine-studded canyons, towering waterfalls and a veritable ocean of prairie grasses alongside America’s largest man-made forest, a wildlife refuge of gigantic proportions and cattle ranches that are better comprehended from the air than the ground. It’s a wide-open landscape. A landscape that inspired Mari Sandoz to produce some of this country’s finest fiction. A landscape you’ll enjoy exploring by car or canoe.
