The Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library loop, designed by Snøhetta, isn’t just a walkway—it’s a journey through time and terrain. History meets the horizon as you gaze upon the Badlands’ rugged beauty, which shaped Roosevelt’s legacy across the TR National Park, the Little Missouri River valley, and even his distant Elkhorn Ranch. In true Roosevelt style, you can follow adventurous paths connected to the nearby Maah Daah Hey Trail by biking, hiking, or even on horseback before or after your visit to the library.
The loop is one important aspect of the library’s features designed by Snøhetta, renowned for their work on the Library of Alexandria in Egypt, the 9/11 Memorial Museum Pavilion in New York, and the San Francisco MOMA, who created many ingenious ways for the library to integrate the land.
The loop features regenerative agriculture across the landscape in partnership with the Medora Grazing Association, reflecting Roosevelt's conservation ethos and ensuring a legacy of stewardship for generations.
Discover more about the library’s intersection of history, nature, and sustainability by visiting TRLibrary.com and signing up for their newsletter.
