      Widowed singles in South Dakota

      From the prairie towns of the east to the pine-covered Black Hills in the west, South Dakota is a place of wide horizons and tight communities. When a husband or wife has died, those communities are a great help, but many people still want to talk with someone who has been through the same loss. That is what our members offer each other. There is no rush and no pressure, just friendly conversation that can become friendship or something more. Choose South Dakota when you sign up and we will show you members near you. Many members say that hearing from someone who truly understands made the long quiet days easier.

      Gentle first-date ideas in South Dakota

      Falls Park, Sioux Falls

      The Big Sioux River tumbles over pink quartzite right in the city, with paths and viewing areas close to cafes. It is a pleasant, easy stroll, with cafes and benches close at hand.

      Badlands National Park

      The Window Trail boardwalk is short and easy, and the view across the strange eroded land is quite something. Take water and a hat, as there is little shade on the boardwalk.

      Custer State Park

      Drive the Wildlife Loop to see bison, pronghorn and prairie dogs from the comfort of the car, stopping where you like. Drive slowly, and give the animals plenty of room.

      Spearfish Canyon

      A scenic drive through limestone cliffs and pines, with places to pull over and walk to the water. It is lovely in autumn, when the aspens and birches turn gold.

      Seasons and weather

      Summer is the busiest time in the Black Hills, and the August motorcycle rally at Sturgis fills the roads and hotels, so plan ahead or choose another week. Autumn is calm and golden. Winters are cold and windy, and snow can close rural roads, so choose a town cafe. Spring is short, quick and often wet.

      Local flavour

      Kuchen, the state dessert, is a good place to begin, along with chislic, walleye from the lakes and pheasant in the autumn. Ask your match about the church supper they remember best. A homemade slice of pie in a small-town cafe is a lovely first date, too.
