The capital city of South Dakota,
Pierre is a state trade and transportation hub, and has been since its establishment
on the east bank of the Missouri
River, opposite Fort Pierre, in 1880. A city rich in history and natural recreational
areas, Pierre has much to offer culture vultures, outdoor enthusiasts and family
vacationers alike. The Pierre
State Capitol Complex is home to the famous Capitol building–a 1910 architectural
work of art, and the Museum
of the South Dakota State Historical Society, along with the South
Dakota National Guard Museum, preserve and celebrate the state's heritage.
The great outdoors are ready and waiting at a number of parks, including the LaFramboise
Island Nature Area and Farm
Island Recreation Area, both of which boast excellent birding opportunities
and trails for hiking, biking and cross-country skiing. Cyclists and walkers will
be further impressed with the network of trails and pathways that wind in and
around the city, including part of the renowned Lewis
& Clark National Historic Trail, while Farm Island and Lake
Oahe are popular places to make a splash, especially on a pair of water skis.
Visitors soaking up Pierre's sunshine in June may be lucky to catch the Oahe
Days Arts Festival, a major family event celebrating the city's heritage,
culture and creativity.
