free camping in the grasslands

Free dispersed camping along a grassland road outside Medora draws consistent traffic, even on weekdays, so arriving early matters. Several sites run along the road, with at least one positioned in a low valley that faces west for sunset views across open grass and sky. No facilities are listed, and the area is managed as dispersed camping, meaning no reservations and no fee. Campers comfortable with high-use dispersed sites and minimal infrastructure will find this a workable base.

Free camping in the grasslands

Several sites along this road. This one is in a bit of a valley with great views at sunset. This area is very busy even during the week
