About Rapid City

Rapid City, South Dakota's second-largest city, rests amid the state's (and the country's) oldest mountain range - the Black Hills. This formation, with its abundant minerals and rugged terrain, has shaped much of the region's history. In fact, Rapid City's early rise to prominence came from the Hills in the form of rich gold reserves. Intent on seeking wealth, early prospectors defied government prohibitions against white settlements, which were enacted following hundreds of bloody conflicts with the indigenous Lakota. Although things have settled down in subsequent years, the area's natural beauty remains constant. More than 300 miles of streams (including Rapid Creek, which gave the town its name) thread through the Black Hills, making Rapid City a common jumping-off point for trout fishing. Hiking, mountain biking, and rock climbing also contribute to the town's status as one of South Dakota's most vibrant, most visited cities. And, of course, Mount Rushmore, a tribute to democracy and the American will, attracts folks with its monumental stature and impressive spectacle.

Did you know?

In Wall, SD, rests one of the region's most well-known roadside attractions and tourist traps - Wall Drug Store. It first opened during the Depression as a place for folks to get free ice water, and it's grown in decades since into a venerable paean to kitsch. Shops, cafeterias, exhibits on local history, and other less refined attractions still call to folks, as do the many billboards scattered throughout the region. Not all people appreciate Wall's charm, but everyone can take advantage of its free water. And yes, there is a pharmacy.
