Explore Cheyenne: Home of the Bison Train, Historic Saloons, and the World’s Largest Outdoor Rodeo
The buildings in Cheyenne rise from the semiarid High Plains like trees pushing through a forest floor. In a country where most major cities are closely hugged by suburbs, the capital of Wyoming is surrounded by endless stretches of dirt, stone, and grass. Just a short drive from the city limits, pronghorn, elk, bears, and open-range cattle meander beside the highway. Perhaps it’s this proximity to nature that makes Cheyenne feel more rural than urban.
