North Dakota's undiscovered gem
A natural sanctuary near Walhalla
This state forest preserves part of the riparian forest typical of the Pembina River, with bur oak, ash, elm, birch and aspen as the common forest species. The forest offers a unique experience when hiking the nature trail and spectacular views from the scenic overlook.
