CASPER, WYOMING
IN THE HEART OF THE COWBOY STATE IS THE AUTHENTIC AND BEAUTIFUL CITY OF CASPER. WITH SO MUCH TO EXPERIENCE, TO MAKE YOUR TIME WITH US EASIER, WE ROUNDED UP THREE AMAZING MUST-SEE AND -DO EXPERIENCES OF CASPER.
TOUR ALCOVA RESERVOIR
Whether it’s by pontoon, kayak or jet-ski, an afternoon spent exploring Alcova Reservoir is as memorable as it is relaxing. Groups can book an excursion to experience one of Casper’s blazing sunsets on the water or navigate their way into Fremont Canyon and immerse themselves in the scenery of the towering rock walls. With world-class fishing and new adventures around every turn, Casper’s waterways are one of the best ways to enjoy Wyoming’s great outdoors.
RIDE THE OREGON TRAIL
Like the pioneers who came before us, you can travel along the ruts of the historical Oregon Trail in an authentic covered wagon right here in Casper. Historic Trails West guides visitors along the same path that some of our earliest settlers traveled along as they expended westward in the 1800s. You’ll learn why pioneer history continues to be a part of our identity and spirit as you’re surrounded by the same untouched landscape that they were. Complete with a Dutch oven meal along the banks of the infamous North Platte River, you can even stay overnight in a traditional tipi under the stars.
REFRESHING WESTERN BREWS
With an expanding culinary scene featuring authentic ramen, Thai, Latin American and Italian food, it only makes sense for our microbrewery scene to expand right along with it. With eight local breweries to choose from, the best way to not get overwhelmed and ensure you taste each of their unique crafts is to download our free Local Ale Trail passport, which features discounts and the opportunity to win a $20 gift card to one at random. There truly isn’t anything more refreshing than a Wyoming-themed ale after a day exploring our wide-open spaces.
