Iconic Mount Rushmore; enjoyable for all ages day and night. Majestic figures of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln, surrounded by the beauty of the Black Hills of South Dakota, tell the story of the birth, growth, development and preservation of this country. From the history of the first inhabitants to the diversity of America today, Mount Rushmore brings visitors face to face with the rich heritage we all share.

The Crazy Horse Memorial is not far away so doing both attractions on the same day is adviseable.
