Named after a military fort from the 1860s, Fort Ransom State Park, nestled in the Sheyenne River Valley, provides an exciting outdoor experience for children and nature lovers alike. Secluded behind heavy woods, this scenic park is also one of the few designated horse parks in the state of North Dakota. It has 68 corrals to accommodate its many equestrian riders. Fort Ransom State Park also offers fun during the winter months with cross-country skiing. For those interested in early life in this valley, Fort Ransom State Park celebrates Sodbuster Days in early fall.
