O'Brian's Tavern is one of those charming nightlife spots where you feel at home the minute you walk through the door. The friendly bar staff and amenable crowd will truly make you feel like a long-lost friend. Pull up a chair and plan to stay awhile to enjoy the great selection of imported beer or sample any one of the many concoctions that the bartenders are quite skilled in creating. This is a perfect place to meet friends after work or to enjoy a casually cool evening out with no fuss or hassle.

Even though it began as a fur-trading outpost, the Fort Abraham Lincoln State Park now stands as a stunning haven for nature lovers and history buffs alike. Located in nearby Mandan, Fort Abraham Lincoln dates all the way back to the 18th century. One of the most stunning aspects of the fort is that it looks almost as it did back in 1876 around the time of Custer's last stand. There are also some carefully reconstructed sights that you won't want to miss like an On-a-Slant Indian Village that features earthen lodges to look like early settlements.

The Lewis and Clark Trail in Bismarck is one of the area's most popular outdoor treks for road bikers. It stretches 87 miles from Bismarck to Pick City. Cyclists enjoy this well-maintained recreational trail that features a moderate degree of difficulty. The elevation gain is minimal, so that assures a somewhat comfortable ride for those who choose to experience part of the trail, but for those making the full trip, stamina and focus along physical agility are most definitely required.
