North Dakota plans to turn the Pembina Gorge into a state park with $8 million investment.

North Dakota's Pembina Gorge, a 2,800-acre nature reserve, is set to become the state's 14th state park. Governor Doug Burgum announced plans to invest $8 million, with $6 million from state funds and $2 million from federal funds, for the first phase of development. The project aims to create an "adventure park" with a 55-unit campground, cabins, trails for various activities, and the state's only white-water rafting opportunity. Expected to attract 8,000 to 10,000 visitors annually, the area features diverse landscapes and outdoor opportunities.
