Surrounded by the magnificent Palo Duro Canyon, a canyon system of the Caprock Escarpment located in the Texas Panhandle, the Palo Duro State Park is a 29, 182-acre state park that is home to some of the most scenic landscapes of the northernmost portion of the Palo Duro Canyon. Constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s, the park’s primary feature is the Palo Duro Canyon, which rests at 3,500 feet above sea level, is 120 miles long, over 20 miles wide, and has a maximum depth of more than 800 feet. The canyon is thought to be the second-largest canyon in the United States. Close to the cities of Amarillo and Canyon, the Palo Duro Canyon State Park is a popular recreational site for visitors who come to enjoy hiking, mountain biking, and soaking up the beautiful scenery.
