Best 'Short Hike' in Badlands
This short, fun and moderately easy hike is a definite favorite of mine. You don't have to be a serious hiker to complete this trail, it only takes about 45 minutes both ways. The trail winds its way around some small stream beds before reaching a giant ladder which hikers must clamber up to continue the trail. This part of the trek was good fun and made a nice change from normal hikes. The trail comes to an end at a fantastic lookout called The Notch. This provides unspoiled views of the flat plains and grasslands below, it also gives you a side on view of The Wall (separating the low and high areas of badlands).
Just make sure to take your camera!!
