Located a half hour southwest of Bismarck, this 117-year-old park is built around the military post that was the departure point of the cavalry regiment led by General George Armstrong Custer, who was based here from 1883 to 1887. It includes reconstructed military buildings, Custer´s house, and the On-A-Slant Indian Village, offering a glimpse into the lives of the Mandan tribe which once inhabited the area. There are also hiking, biking, and camping options here.
