Fort Robinson State Park occupies the site of a historic U.S. Army post in the Nebraska panhandle near Crawford. The fort played a pivotal role in the Indian Wars, including the death of Crazy Horse in 1877. The 22,000-acre park offers horseback riding, jeep tours, stagecoach rides, a swimming pool, hiking and biking trails, and a trout fishing pond. Historic adobe buildings serve as lodging including former officers quarters and barracks. A museum covers the post history. A Nebraska State Park Entry Permit is required.
