Cowboy Trail
Cyclists come to the Niobrara River Valley for the new Cowboy Trail, a converted rail bed that will eventually cover more than 320 miles between Chadron and Norfolk. For now, visitors can explore more than 160 miles of the broad, level gravel path. Not far from Valentine, the trail crosses the Niobrara River on a century-old, 148-foot-high steel trestle bridge, offering a spectacular panorama (left). On most days, you'll have the trail -- and the sweeping vistas -- to yourself. (402) 471-0641; outdoornebraska.ne.gov
