Route description
The Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway consists of a loop made up of four numbered highways. The byway is part of
pigtail bridges. The byway enters Custer State Park along its eastern edge and turns west at its intersection with SD 36. In the western part of the state park, the byway splits into two highways, one which follows US 16A westward and one which follows SD 87 northward. The US 16A portion of the byway runs into Custer, where the byway becomes part of SD 89 and heads north. This portion of the byway meets the SD 87 portion in the northwest corner of Custer State Park. The byway then follows SD 87 to its intersection with US 16 and US 385, where it becomes part of the nearby SD 244
. The byway follows SD 244 eastward into the Mount Rushmore National Memorial, where it meets up with US 16A.
History
Most of the roads which make up the Peter Norbeck Scenic Byway were proposed by
Iron Mountain Road
, the US 16A section of the byway. The byway was established on September 23, 1996, and named in honor of Norbeck.
