The great outdoors
Nebraska’s state parks and recreation areas provide a bounty of outdoor adventure, including hiking, biking and camping. If you’d rather be on the water, canoe or tube one of the state’s picturesque rivers, the Niobrara National Scenic River is a great place to start. Or try tanking. That’s right, pile the family in a stock tank and take a leisurely float downstream.
World-class attractions
Voted the best zoo in America by Reader’s Digest, Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo features some of the world’s largest indoor habitats, including a rain forest, a desert and a nocturnal exhibit. Farther west at I-80 Exit 426, take to the skies in a big way at the Strategic Air & Space Museum.
Rare treats
If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind experience, you’ll certainly find it at the Great Platte River Road Archway. Spanning I-80 near Kearney, this award-winning museum tells the story of western expansion through stunning audio/visual effects and three-dimensional displays. Speaking of unique stops, be sure to check out Carhenge near Alliance. This to-scale replica of England’s Stonehenge is made entirely of vintage cars.
Complete your getaway with a good night’s sleep at an elegant hotel, a quaint bed and breakfast or perhaps even a guest ranch.
