Sowbelly Canyon is located in the northwestern corner of Nebraska. It is {{convert|2.7|mi}} northeast of Harrison and is part of the Pine Ridge region.

Sowbelly Canyon is a little-known portion of the Pine Ridge. The canyon can be viewed on a scenic driving route north of Harrison; the drive is approximately {{convert|11|mi}} long. A bed and breakfast in the lower bluffs and pines of the canyon was destroyed by a wildfire in July 2006.[1]

Sowbelly Canyon was named when hungry soldiers who had been fleeing Indians were offered sowbelly (bacon) by the rescue party.[2] Sowbelly Creek was named from the same incident.[3]
