White River Visitor Center

Great little visitor center to visit if you're entering the Badlands from the South. The rangers have plenty of experience and are very helpful. Although this visitor center is much smaller than the main one, it has plenty of fascinating things to learn particularly about the North American native tribes that lived here. Parking lot is fairly small, but good. Decent bathrooms. No gift shop at this one. Drinking fountain available. 1-2 lunch tables if you plan on doing a picnic at this stop. This visitor center is seasonal! It closes during the winter.

I visited this area in Sept and Oct of 17'. I was very pleased with all the information provided. The young man that was working was very helpful with directions, it was certainly appreciated.

South unit of the Badlands. Beautiful. If you've seen the North unit already I recommend taking in the drive to the south.
