State Park
Region 7 | Custer Country
As the name implies, Medicine Rocks was a place of "big medicine" where Indian hunting parties conjured up magical spirits. Weathering has given the soft sandstone rock formations a Swiss-cheese look providing a unique landscape filled with greater meaning and serenity. You'll enjoy photography, hiking, and wildlife viewing in this remote and primitive site.
