About Black Hills Veteran March
The Black Hills Veteran March is a meaningful annual event dedicated to honoring veterans and recognizing their service and sacrifice. Held in the Black Hills of South Dakota, the march brings together veterans, active service members, families, and supporters to walk in solidarity, remembrance, and respect. Participants of all backgrounds and experience levels are welcome, making it an inclusive way for the community to come together in support of those who have served.
Taking place each year in mid-September, the Black Hills Veteran March offers several participation options, including a 110-mile endurance march, a full marathon distance (26.2 miles), a mini march of approximately 16 miles, as well as team relay and virtual march options. More than just a physical challenge, the event emphasizes camaraderie, reflection, and community connection while showcasing the scenic beauty of the Black Hills and honoring veterans in a powerful and respectful way.
