Review & FAQ:
Hunter Peak is the sixth highest peak in Texas at 8,368 feet, although only 381 feet separate it from Guadalupe Peak, the highest peak in Texas. This peak and all the Guadalupe Mountains are ancient fossilized coral. There are a number of loop trails on the mountain as well as great trails that lead to the summit. Probably due to its proximity to the wildly popular Guadalupe Peak, this one doesn’t get the attention it deserves. The south side of Hunter Peak is a steep, rugged desert landscape, and the north side is a gently sloping pine-forested landscape. The trailhead for Hunter Peak is the same as for Guadalupe Peak.
