Tuthill Park mountain bike trails

Highlight • MTB Park

Created by Falls Area Singletrack Trails (FAST) and a lot of fun. Traffic goes both directions which is less than great but they’re really fun Blues and the Blacks like up to it. Lots of tight corners but it’s all hardpacked with some loose on top.

Sioux Falls Bike Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Sioux Falls Bike Trail is a multi-use paved trail around Sioux Falls. It follows along the Big Sioux River and at certain points of the path, there are great views of the river.

As this is a multi-use path, the space is shared with other cyclists and pedestrians, so it is important to regulate your speed so to ensure the safety of all users.

The Arc of Dreams

Highlight • Monument

The Arc of Dreams is a monumental stainless-steel sculpture spanning the Big Sioux River between 6th and 8th streets. It was created by South Dakota Artist Laureate Dale Claude Lamphere and is nearly the length of a football field. At the center of the Arc of Dreams is a 15-foot gap, 80 feet above the river, representing the leap of faith dreamers take to see their dreams come true.

The Arc of Dreams is a tribute to the dreamers of the past and present and an inspiration to the dreamers of the future. The iconic sculpture is the signature piece of art for the city of Sioux Falls, helping to illustrate this unique and thriving modern city on the prairie.

A blade of prairie grass inspired the overall sweep of the sculpture. The structure reflects the time-tested growth pattern that allows grass to move with the wind and not fail. These grass-like arcs are then wrapped in a double helix: the carrier of all the genetic ancestry now uniquely expressed in each of us.

Falls Park Waterfalls

Highlight • Waterfall

The Falls Park is a big movie theater and definitely worth the long journey. It is beautifully located in the heart of the city, sprawling and within easy walking distance. In any case, do not miss the lookout tower at the Visitor Center ...
You should plan at least 1h time.
It is great in the evening around 21:30 (we were here in July) to come back again, then the cases are still great illuminated.
