Wall Attractions

Wall (pop. 800) is the northern gateway to the Badlands National Park, which is surrounded by the Buffalo Gap National Grasslands. Wall was established as a railroad station on the C&NW Railroad in the summer of 1907. The town name comes from "The Wall", a rugged strip a half mile to three miles wide and nine miles long with a succession of tinted spires, ridges and twisted gullies that serves as a barrier. The town is famous for its huge drugstore.
