there is a Spearfish canyon scenic drive you can drive through it, and you can see the Spearfish falls and the Roughlock falls, you it's a short walk to the Spearfish falls from the Latchstring Inn restaurant, while for the Roughlock falls, you can walk a trail from Spearfish canyon lodge or drive the dirt road to the observation deck of the falls.

Beautiful scenery and great hiking. We hiked to Spearfish waterfalls. If you do the drive through the canyon, there are a few spots to hike but not many. The scenery was specular.

We didn’t attempt the hike to Roughlock falls, as the road was closed up to the falls and we didn’t know if the trail was visible all the way to the falls. Can’t wait to go back in the summer and see it again.…

The canyon is a beautiful drive and is full of many great short hikes to waterfalls like Roughlock and Spearfish falls. The hike to the Devils Bathtub was a lot of fun if you like crossing a creek a dozen times to the pool where you can swim. You can spend all day exploring the Canyon or just drive through in under an hour. Either way it is worth the time to detour to the Canyon.…
