Birding
Some of the most beautiful birds in North America can be found in Iowa’s Loess Hills. The Loess Hills provides a north-south conduit for migrating raptors and passerines. The mix of riparian, woodland, oak savanna, and prairie habitats throughout the seven-county region make for excellent wildlife and bird viewing opportunities. The Missouri River Valley and Central Flyway also creates an interesting blend of western and eastern bird species during migration.
Motorcycling
Rolling, winding roads weave through prairies and rugged landscapes to historic downtowns, with quaint shops, interpretive centers and attractions as unique as the Loess Hills themselves. This page offers information, including suggested routes, for motorcycling in the Loess Hills.
