United States Texas
Big Bend National Park
A vast US national park in southwest Texas with the Rio Grande, desert landscapes, dramatic canyons, and diverse wildlife.
Tips from the community
Rolling down from the Chisos to the Chihuahuan – from mountains to desert – Big Bend National Park of the Lone Star State could just be your chance to channel that inner John Wayne. It’s daunting stuff at 1,200+ square miles that hosts all sorts of habitats and corners, from the babbling Rio Grande to the pine-scented pinnacles of Emory Peak. But that’s Texas for you: Nothing in half measures. Especially not rancher-trodden outback, canyon trails, rivers, bluffs, and waterfalls.
