Hiking: Buzzard Trail in Black Hills National Forest, USA - Travel Eat Enjoy Repeat

Just outside of Rapid City, South Dakota, we decided to do a little hike to enjoy the beautiful nature in Black Hills National Forest. We ended up going to Buzzards Roost, where you have different options to hike or mountain bike.

We went up via the Pretty vulture trail to the lookout point. The view from the top is amazing. It is not a hard or steep hike, just very enjoyable. We went back down via the Sun Down trail, which was a little bit rockier than the way up.

When we were there, we were lucky to see a turkey vulture. We stayed up there for quite a while to take the perfect shot :). And we did.

This is the perfect hike to do on a quick pass by or to do in the weekend with the family.
