Lucky to be in the Lone Star State!
Big Bend National Park was established in 1944 and features historical sites, unique desert plants, spectacular vistas, and a wide variety of wildlife, including bear, javelina, mountain lion, bobcat, deer, and road runners. The park has a wealth of geology, and during the change of seasons, guests come to look for the many different wildflowers and migrating birds.
Big Bend National Park encompasses over 800,000 acres and contains three natural divisions: the Rio Grande with its meandering 118 miles of lush, green floodplain, the sprawling Chihuahuan Desert, and the majestic Chisos Mountain Range.
