PIERRE, S.D. - South Dakota Dept of Tourism reports on the new Stunning Virtual Tour Through Black Hills National Forest. The department partnered with Your Forests. Your Future and the Black Hills National Forest to garner high quality video assets to promote the Black Hills National Forest. The video will be utilized in visitor centers across the Black Hills National Forest as a virtual tour, and in marketing efforts to promote the forest.
As stated in a press release, Viewers will be able to watch the sun rise on sublime rock formations, virtually experience the catch of a fish in one of the wild streams, fly through golden grassland, ride on horseback through ponderosa forest, and head to the top of a lookout for a jaw-dropping 360-view of rugged country rising from the plains below. “We continue to see an increasing amount of interest in the Black Hills National Forest,” said Jim Hagen, Secretary of the Department of Tourism, in the press release. “Its unique recreational opportunities provide a great advantage and hook when touting the benefits of visiting South Dakota from Americans and in all of our international markets. The accessibility and beauty of this forest make it one of a kind.”
