- AudiApril 11, 2011You may remember both the monument and its road from Close Encounters of the Third Kind. The scenic approach stretches 3 miles and is an example of close integration with natural surroundings.
- Mark BJune 15, 2017Fantastic natural wonder. If you have time walk the Red Beds Trail which is almost 3 miles long. Start out on left side as you will have an easier time with the gentle switchbacks near the end.
- Men's Health MagMarch 6, 2015This incredible igneous rock formation shoots 1,267 feet above the surrounding Black Hills. A National Monument, it's sacred to the Lakota and other nearby tribes. Read more
- Louis GardinoSeptember 15, 2014Make sure you have plenty of fuel, gas stations close early, around 5 PM in these parts. Great hike around the tower though.
- Paul RogersDecember 8, 2019Amazing opportunity to see a rare monument, walk around it. Appreciate it for being a beautiful soulful place.

- Šišóka DútaNovember 17, 2013The Dakota people call this place Matho Thipidan - meaning house of the bear. Dakota people consider this place to be sacred land, because of its unique beauty and abundance of life.
- Robert Jim FulnerJune 25, 2017A great wonder God has given to His people. I don't believe the evolutionist mumbo jumbo, but it is interesting to learn about anyway.
- Siri MillerJuly 30, 2015Great place to visit. If you are disabled hit the restroom down at the gift shop before you drive up to the monument. The bathroom up there is down a long staircase.
- Nikki OverwaySeptember 2, 2013This place was virtually empty over Labor Day. What a great find! Lots to do: pool, hayride, movie night, wifi... perfect spot to glamp.
- Abby Anderson JonesJuly 3, 2016Loved seeing the prairie dogs on the drive in. This monument is more incredible than you can imagine.
- Mark HanleyAugust 31, 2014A must see. The tower trail is a really nice walk all the way around the tower. Watch for climbers.
- Jarrett Spotts-RamesJuly 1, 2017A great place to see something awesome with a great view on a hike around.
- Erik RowleyFebruary 5, 2013An astounding site and icon of the American west. Hike on the trails around Devil's Tower and take in the stunning views.
- SummerDecember 20, 2012There is something special about this place, but if you are only here to see and not hike skip going all the way in. Watch the gift shop in the park! They tried to over charge everyone in our group!
- Duccio MondanelliOctober 27, 2017Amazing natural monument. Be respectful since it's a native sacred place. The hike around is easy and very beautiful.
- Wyo Lifestyle MagMarch 22, 2012The first declared US National Monument, by Pres. Teddy Roosevelt on Sept. 24, 1906. An amazing geologic feature with rich history and shrouded in mystery. Climbers take on the tower every year! Read more

- Aditya SubramanianJuly 30, 2011US's first monument its an absolute beauty and pictures don't do justice. Mystifying and beautiful at the same time. Try a walk at dusk. Really spooky
- Nathan WrightAugust 23, 2014For all the grammarians: Yes, there is no apostrophe in Devils Tower. It's an official mistake that has never been corrected.
- Jennifer WilliamsAugust 4, 2014Great to see. Don't go during Sturgis, took about 1/2 just to wait in line to get in. Staff in gift shop were very rude. Not a way to represent a National Monument.
- Colleen McAndrewAugust 14, 2014Do the loop trail! The Tower looks slightly different from each angle.
- Marion DAugust 13, 2013Drive slowly when approaching prairie dog town. They'll cross the road carelessly.
- Joseph PonserellaOctober 11, 2012Great view but I also appreciate the clean restrooms at the visitors center!
- Ben MayneJune 7, 2021Extremely crowded on a Sunday in June. Had a decent wait to get in and limited parking.
- Richard WallassSeptember 7, 2018Too too taaa tooo daaa... Watch "close encounters" just before to go...
- Rachael DampierDecember 20, 2010Watch for all the Prairie Dogs.... They are mean if you accidently come close.
