See the history of the West through the eyes of the Nelson Museum of the West, a museum that has grown over the years thanks to the dedication of its founder, Robert Nelson. This growing museum’s collection consists of more than 20 temporary and permanent exhibits, ranging from Western art to Native American artifacts.

Get up close and personal with the great North American bison at the Terry Bison Ranch, just seven miles south of Cheyenne. Explore the ranch resort attractions and its grassland grazers on either the custom-built train or by horseback riding along the trails. You can also enjoy fishing at the rainbow trout-stocked pond, let the children play at the Kid Corral and dine at the excellent Senator’s Steakhouse.

Climb aboard an old-fashioned trolley and get a narrated tour of the city with the Cheyenne Trolley Tours. This fun, educational ride is wonderful for those visiting Frontier City for the first time or long-time residents who are curious about Cheyenne’s past. See all the major landmarks, attractions, and museums, and upgrade your tour to a Plus Pass for two-day access to all these sites.

Come to the Mary Godfrey Playhouse or the historic Atlas Theatre to watch the Cheyenne Little Theatre Players bring a musical, drama, comedy or other special entertainment to life on stage. Since 1930, the Little Theatre troupe has been Cheyenne’s oldest and only continuously operating community theater group in the city.
