Located on the High Point Bison Ranch, in Kimball County, Panorama Point is the highest point in Nebraska. The high point was originally discovered in 1951 by Art Henrickson and Claude Alden. In 1971, a stone marker was placed on the point by the Kimball Chamber of Commerce.
There is a log book on the "summit" and guests are asked to sign. At the request of the property owners, a $3.00 donation for visiting the high point can be placed in a marked box near the turn off for Panorama Point.
Directions to the high point are available from the Chamber of Commerce office in Kimball. After you have summited, the Kimball-Banner County Chamber of Commerce will issue you a certificate to prove your successful ascent.
