NEBRASKA SANDHILLS:

The Nebraska Sandhills is a unique and fascinating region in the United States. It’s a vast area of grass-stabilized sand dunes covering about 19,300 square miles, primarily in north-central Nebraska. This makes it one of the largest sand dune formations in the Western Hemisphere. Despite being “sandhills,” it’s not a desert—it’s a mixed-grass prairie ecosystem, with the grasses anchoring the dunes in place. The region sits atop the Ogallala Aquifer, which provides groundwater that supports wetlands, lakes, and ranching, even though rainfall is relatively low.

Ranching dominates the Sandhills economy, with cattle grazing on the native grasses. It’s sparsely populated—Cherry County, for example, has more cattle than people by a huge margin. The landscape is rugged and rolling, with some dunes reaching up to 330 feet high. It’s a place of subtle beauty: wide-open skies, wildflowers like yucca and prairie roses, and wildlife such as mule deer, pronghorn, and sandhill cranes that migrate through in massive numbers.

Historically, the Sandhills were shaped by wind erosion after the last Ice Age, and they’ve stayed largely untouched by intensive farming due to the sandy soil being unsuitable for crops. It’s a bit of a hidden gem—remote, quiet, and not heavily touristed. Places like Valentine, Nebraska, serve as gateways, and the Sandhills Scenic Byway (Highway 2) and state highway 20 offers a great way to see it.
