Bridges to Buttes Byway (US-20)
A 197-mile Nebraska-designated scenic byway along US-20 from the Wyoming border east to Valentine. The route traverses three distinct landscapes: rolling Sandhills grasslands on the eastern end, valley pine bluffs through the Nebraska National Forest and Fort Robinson State Park in the middle, and open prairie at the Oglala National Grassland approaching Wyoming. Access points include Agate Fossil Beds National Monument and Toadstool Geologic Park. A portion between Fort Robinson and Hay Springs is also designated the Crazy Horse Memorial Highway.
