Worland Wyoming Tourism

Since 1906 when Worland was founded, this community has been the major trade center for the Big Horn Basin. Located at the confluence of Fifteen Mile Creek and the Big Horn River, Worland is also an excellent spot for vacationers to take advantage of all the recreational adventures to be found in the Big Horn Basin.

Wildlife is abundant in the area and big game hunting is a popular activity for the sportsman. Elk, antelope, mule deer and upland game birds are part of the diverse habitat of the area. The mountains offer pleasant treks by snowmobile or skis. Both downhill and cross-country skiers enjoy the area.

The Washakie Museum and Cultural Center brings the past to life using fascinating exhibits to portray the relationship between the historical people of the Big Horn Basin and their environment. The unique geography of the Big Horn Basin and its world-class archaeological sites allow the Museum to offer one of the finest interpretive centers for local human history, from ancient mammoth hunters through early settlers, as well as the geology, archaeology and paleontology of our area. The Museum also serves as a center for the visual and performing arts, conferences, conventions, and other gatherings.The Gooseberry Formations and Painted Desert are just a short distance west of Worland on Wyoming 431.
