Devil’s Tower National Monument
Made up of igneous rocks, the Devil’s Tower was Wyoming's first national monument. Pristine and unique, this geological feature rises 867 feet above Wyoming's rolling prairies.

Planning a trip to Devil’s Tower National Monument
Devils Tower was the first national monument in the United States, proclaimed by Theodore Roosevelt in 1906. It stands about 870 feet above the Belle Fourche River as a cluster of enormous hexagonal columns — the core of a volcanic intrusion, left standing as the softer rock around it eroded away.
The Tower Trail is a paved 1.3-mile loop around the base and is what most visits are. It is close enough to see the climbers on the columns, which is the thing that gives the scale away.
The Tower is sacred to more than twenty Northern Plains tribes, and June is when most ceremonies take place. The park asks climbers to stay off voluntarily for that month, and most do.
It is in Wyoming’s north-east corner, roughly two hours from Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills, which is the trip it usually belongs to.
