  Take time to walk the Presidential Trail that will lead you to the base of the monument, directly below the four famous faces. And - keep your eyes open for sure-footed mountain goats!

  Lots of cops hang out on the road leading up to Mt Rushmore - the signs say 25 MPH for a reason (there are lots of wild animals wandering around and I don't mean tourists) so OBEY them!

  If visiting South Dakota also don't miss the Badlands, Crazy Horse, Black Hills, Wall Drug, and watch a shoot out in Deadwood! Also try a Bison Burger.

  The twisting, winding road up to the monument is a posted 25mph - and is strictly enforced - but ends with one of the country's greatest vistas.

  Appeared in National Treasure: Book of Secrets (2007) as the site of the hidden Aztec gold.

  Parking is pricy, Nat'l Park Pass will not help.

  It's not a single attraction - there's lots to do and see! Plan on spending at least two or three hours exploring.

  If visiting in the summertime start out with the hike around the mountain, then cool off in the museum and gift shops. Super informative and fun!
