Neat drive with great views. My group used this route to get to our campsite.
Scenic drive into the heart of the Chisos leading to multiple trailheads, camping. Camping can be limited in big Bend during the peak season. Plan well ahead.
Short drive to multiple trailheads in the Chicos Mountains
Excellent for cycling.
Absolutely beautiful.
This is the highest (and coolest) portion of Big Bend. This road is only about 10 miles, a little crooked, but fun to drive. Trailers over 25' not recommended.
