Nebraska Byway Releases New Tourism App. Powered by Huntrex.

Nebraska's Sandhills Journey National Scenic Byway is now only a tap away, thanks to the Byway's new mobile app. The official Nebraska Sandhills Journey app will serve as a travel guide for Nebraska's Highway 2.


"Exciting things are happening within the Sandhills Journey National Scenic Byway!" said byway president Linda Teahon. "New businesses are opening, and long-standing companies are developing in new and exciting ways. The new Sandhills Journey app will help visitors discover major attractions and hidden gems along the Byway."


The Sandhills are the largest area of stabilized grass-covered sand dunes in the Western Hemisphere encompassing more than 13 million acres (20,312 square miles). The Sandhills equal an area about as large as Vermont, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island combined.


Expansive ranchland, remote landscapes, winding rivers, and the dramatic Sandhills provide an amazing view from Nebraska Highway 2, which stretches from Grand Island to Alliance, NE.


"Two hundred seventy two miles of America's heartland is a sight to behold," added Teahon. "Byway travelers have the opportunity to experience the unique Nebraska Sandhills and its agriculture, history, wildlife, recreation, and natural resources."


Visitors can find meals, lodging, attractions, gas, and an interactive travel guide on the new NE Sandhills Journey app. Attractions include the largest hand-planted forest in the world.


The "Nebraska Sandhills Journey" app is available for download on Google Play for Android and the Apple App Store for iOS devices. A Progressive Web App (PWA) is also available by visiting app.sandhillsjourney.com in a web browser. The app was designed by huntrex.com, a Nebraska-based web and app design company.


Learn more about the Sandhills Journey National Scenic Byway at sandhillsjourney.com or on the Sandhills Journey app.


During the 2022 Bicycle Ride Across Nebraska (BRAN), Rick from Omaha may have said it best, "I have to get to the Sandhills a couple of times a year, or I'm just not right!"
