Cattle ranch
Fargo-Moorhead
Visit the metropolitan area of Fargo-Moorhead, a prime tourist destination, with museums, amusement parks, historical buildings and annual festivals. See the locally hand-built 23m (76ft) replica of a Viking ship that made an epic journey to Norway in 1982.
Fort Abraham Lincoln
Visit Fort Abraham Lincoln (www.ndparks.com), south of Mandan, the final command post of Lt Colonel George Custer, before his famous massacre by the Sioux Indians at the Battle of Little Bighorn. Custer's entire command of 265 men was wiped out in a 20-minute battle led by Sitting Bull, Gall and Crazy Horse.
Knife River Indian Villages
Explore the traditions of Northern Plains Indians at Knife River Indian Villages (www.nps.gov/knri). Remains of earthlodge dwellings tell the silent story of a culture that was still vibrant when Lewis and Clark headed westwards on their explorations.
Theodore Roosevelt National Park
Enjoy the spectacular views of 28,329-hectare (70,000-acre) Theodore Roosevelt National Park (www.nps.gov/thro), set in the Badlands of western North Dakota. Theodore Roosevelt bought Elkorn Ranch after his wife and mother died, and found inspiration among the quiet canyons of 'rough-rider country'.
