What To Expect
In our opinion, the best way to enjoy the Badlands National Park! This 22.5mi ride is best started in the early morning to make the most of the active wildlife and quiet park. Begin the day in Rapid City, we drive out to the Badlands (about 1hr) to begin the ride. We start at Pinnacles Overlook and follow the spectacular spires and formations along the main road of the park. There are plenty of opportunities to stop for wildlife, photographs and to enjoy the views! Your e-bike makes for easy work of the ride. As this is a point to point ride (not a loop), your guide will leapfrog along with van support as you enjoy the ride, and in many cases, ride portions with you as well. This way the vehicle will be available for us at the end of the ride, or as an option for those who may not want to complete the 22 miles. Take a break for lunch in the park surrounded by the spectacular badlands formations. There is time here to visit the visitors center or find some souvenirs. Please note* This is a quiet, slow road, however typically not recommended for children under 14yrs as you will be sharing the road with other vehicles. Some biking experience is ideal but not essential.

5.00Such a great experience and amazing views. The bikes are electric assist - not fully electric which is awesome as you get a work out in and also challenging with the hills but I loved it. I loved that we got to ride as a family and the guide stays in the van just ahead or behind us incase of emergenies and this allowed us to keep a coat or extra gear in the van incase it was needed and jump out to hike certain areas when we wanted. We weren't able to finish the whole tour due to a sick kid at home and the strong winds were really bothering me but I absolutely loved the time we had there. The bagel sandwhiches we ordered were great as well
Wonderful and unique way to see the Badlands

5.00After spending a lot of time in a vehicle the day prior, we decided to do the e-bike tour through the Badlands rather than the driving tour. What a great decision. Having a private tour through Black Hills Tour Company, we were able to make this switch easily. It felt great being outside riding mainly downhill and having the e bike assistance uphill. It was still exercise, but with a little help to keep it fun too!! Joel, our private guide, drove ahead and showed us the spots to stop and filled us in on all the highlights. The Badlands are beautiful! We biked the 22 miles and then had a great picnic lunch at the visitor center with a gorgeous backdrop. Afterwards, we drove to Wall Drug Store because we had to see it after seeing all the signs on the drive out to the Badlands and Joel filled us in on missile silos along the route home. It was a fantastic day and one we never would have done without having somebody provide the bikes- do a drop off and pick up 22 miles away - make sure the bikes are in great shape- and laid out a great picnic lunch. Usually I’m the one getting everything together for my family, it was just fabulous showing up and having someone else do it for me! Thanks Joel for a memorable day!
