Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Big Bend National Park is a lovely national park in southwest Texas, encompassing the terrain of the Chisos Mountains and large portions of the Chihuahuan Desert. The park stretches for over 801,000 acres near the United States-Mexico border, named for a large bend in the Rio Grande River. Over 1,200 species of native plants are protected throughout the park, along with dozens of native and endangered wildlife species. Charming hiking and backpacking trails showcase stunning natural wonders like the Santa Elena Canyon, known for its steep limestone cliffs, and the Mule Ears desert rock towers. Professional backpacking guides lead excursions throughout the park on a regular basis. Near the park's Mexico border, the preserved Langford Hot Springs site protects the architectural remains of an historic bathhouse.
