The Terry Bison Ranch Resort can be described as unpretentious. The natural, pastoral setting has been developed into an attraction over the nearly 30 years since it was opened to the public, while retaining the wide-open aura of southeastern Wyoming. There’s a lot to see and do on the property, yet the name itself captures the single biggest reason to visit: bison.
The ranch retains the name of founder Charles H. Terry, who sold the 300,000-acre property to F.E. Warren, Wyoming’s first governor, in 1881.

How far will you have too look from the train to see the bison? Not far at all. They often congregate on or near the tracks.

Young bison give some perspective to the massive size of the adults.

The Terry Bison Ranch Resort is easily accessible from Interstate 25 at Exit 2, just north of the Wyoming-Colorado border. Part of the attraction is the ranch’s remote feel, yet it hardly requires a trek off the beaten path of the highway. Horseback and pony riding, fishing and SATV tours are among other popular activities on the ranch. Cabins and an RV park are available to visitors who want to extend their stays on the property beyond one day. The ranch website provides more information.
