SD-240 Roadside Pullout near Badlands NP Interior Entrance

At the southern edge of Badlands National Park near the Interior entrance, this roadside pullout off SD Highway 240 sits where open prairie meets the park boundary — close enough to take in the silhouetted ridgeline at dusk and the full spread of stars after dark. The gravel shoulder holds around four vehicles, traffic is minimal overnight, and a 30-foot Class C has overnighted here without difficulty. Land status at the precise boundary is uncertain; campers have not encountered any no-camping signage or ranger contact, but prospective visitors should verify current rules with the NPS Interior District before staying.
