Nebraska Panhandle Holiday Packages

Drive, hike or ride on horseback through boundless prairie sprinkled with deep canyons, pine ridges, geological wonders and man-made monuments in Northwest Nebraska.

A breathtaking landscape of wide savannah plains and forested ridges unfurls before your eyes in the Nebraska Panhandle, an expansive northwestern region of the scenic state. Thousands of acres of public parkland are yours to explore on a tour around the Panhandle via hiking, cycling and horse-riding trails. Go hunting by the banks of the region’s swiftly flowing rivers or drop a line in a calm lake. Encounter landmark monuments to the region’s history, including ancient fossil beds, collections of relics from the local Oglala Lakota people and the former military post of Fort Robinson.

Discover a link to prehistoric times at the Agate Fossil Beds National Monument outside the 19th-century ranch of James H. Cook. Walking trails to excavation sites and an interpretive centre help to paint a picture of the Panhandle 19 million years ago, when giant mammals roamed the savannah. You can also see magnificent artifacts from the Oglala Lakota Sioux on display at the site’s visitor centre and museum.

Find more local history at Fort Robinson National Park, Nebraska’s largest state park and the home of a late 19th-century barracks. Hike, bike or camp in the wilderness, or check out the old military fort’s museums to learn about the local Indian war hero, Chief Crazy Horse, and stay a night in the barracks.

Hike or ride the scenic mountaintop trails at Pine Ridge National Recreation Area, where expansive vistas open up from the forested and rocky ridges. Visit Oglala National Grassland to see the magnificent rock formations of Toadstool Geological Park. You can see intriguing toadstool-shaped sandstone formations and the fossilized footprints of an array of animals amid this intriguing moonscape-like park. You might also come across more monuments on your travels, such as the sandstone spire of Chimney Rock or the roadside sculpture constructed from 38 classic cars arranged into the exact shape of Stone Henge.

Nebraska Panhandle’s largest towns include Scottsbluff, Chadron, CrawfordOpens in a new window and Bayard. It is best to explore the region’s big distances by car. Western Nebraska Regional Airport is a short drive from Scottsbluff. Enjoy an exciting summer road trip and adventures in the wilderness in the Nebraska Panhandle.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Nebraska Panhandle during the COVID-19 outbreak?
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, travelling today comes with more challenges. Take a look at these worthwhile tips before jumping on your plane to Nebraska Panhandle:
  • Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before locking in your flight. Also check if there are any requirements you'll have to follow on arrival, such as health testing.
  • Keep your face mask on even during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to temporarily lower your mask for ID purposes.
  • Rather than handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, place it directly on the reader yourself. Once that's done, hold it up for inspection.
  • TSA now permits passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed from your bag to be screened.
  • Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
  • If you're bringing food through the screening checkpoint, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
