The Fossil Freeway is an enjoyable and scenic drive between Denver and Colorado’s Front Range to South Dakota’s Black Hills through western Nebraska. While exploring this one-of-a-kind highway corridor connecting the region’s rich fossil history, we hand-feed bison and learn more about these sentinels of the Great Plains, explore a natural shortgrass prairie setting, and take in a stunning view of the Oregon Trail and North Platte River Valley from an elevation of more than 800 feet.
