National Historic
Trails Center

The new 25,000 square foot National Historic Trails Center overlooking the Platte River tells a story as big as the West. Visitors to Casper, Wyoming, can now experience the dramatic saga of the westward migration on the Oregon, Mormon, California, and Pony Express trails. The exhibits examine daily life along the trails, the native people who already lived in these places, and the social and political events that induced pioneers to pursue their goals via journeys of epic proportions.
