Niobrara National Scenic River

Many find it hard to believe that the state of Nebraska contains such a unique, diverse and beautiful outdoor recreation area as the Niobrara River. Designated a National Scenic River by Congress in 1991, the Niobrara shows its diversity from its wide, verdant valleys to its steep sandstone canyons, waterfalls and cliffs. With five ecological systems meeting along 30 miles of the river, a unique mix of plants and animals call the Niobrara home.

Canoeing and tubing are great ways to take advantage of the beauty of the Niobrara National Scenic River. One of the top canoeing rivers in the country, its leisurely flow and shallow waters provide beginners as well as seasoned veterans with canoe trips they'll never forget. If paddling a canoe is not your style, stretch out on a giant inner-tube and let the river do the work for you. The many canoe and tube outfitters in the area will equip you with everything needed for a perfect trip.

it'll make a believer out of you!
