ララミー郡周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ5

Leave Happy Jack Road and ride south here, taking Granite Springs Road, for a small detour of 1.4 miles to visit Curt Gowdy State Park. Enjoy the Granite Springs Reservoir, campsites, and scenic road around the lake, or stay on Happy Jack Road and skirt the edges of the park. This area is pretty exposed, so if you need a water fill-up, shade, or restroom break, the visitor center for Curt Gowdy State Park is only .4 miles from the same turn off on Granite Springs Road. The visitor center is open every day from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The Wyoming State Capitol stands as one of the oldest buildings in the state. Built in 1890, the same year Wyoming became the 44th state, the original dome was made of copper, gilded in gold leaf, and renovated in 2018 during a massive restoration project that ended in 2019.

Not only the Capitol, but Cheyenne itself is really worth a stopover! Nice little town with 50s charm!

Holliday Park is home to Lake Minnehaha, an art center, basketball courts, public restrooms, play areas, and picnic shelters. There is a multi-use path around the lake. There are also multiple historic trains in the park with informational signage.

The Cheyenne Union Pacific Railroad Depot is the former Union Pacific Railroad station building in Cheyenne, Wyoming. The building is now used as a railway museum.

St Mary's Roman Catholic Cathedral in Wyoming - in front of the cathedral are the 10 Commandments immortalized, the first time I've seen such a monument.

Rather by coincidence, we drove out in Cheyenne and did a longer hike through the city. The State Capitol was so impressive that we decided to stay longer than just a tank stop.
