SHR Airport Car Rental - Sheridan Off Airport

Sheridan County Airport (SHR) is located 5 km north of Sheridan and is the gateway to northern Wyoming's magnificent landscape with the Big Horn Mountains as a backdrop. The airport offers connections to Denver and has two car rental companies on site. From here it is just 10 minutes to Sheridan's charming historic downtown.

Sheridan is known for its well-preserved Main Street with western shops, galleries and restaurants. Bighorn National Forest begins just 35 km to the west via US-14 and offers dramatic mountain roads and hiking trails. Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument, 110 km to the north in Montana, is a historically important destination.

Drive Bighorn Scenic Byway (US-14) to the west – the road climbs to 9,200 feet and offers fantastic views, but is closed in winter. Visit King's Saddlery in downtown, a legendary western shop and museum that is a must-see. Plan for at least one overnight stay if you want to explore both the Bighorn Mountains and Wyoming's northeastern corner.
