This was our FIRST TIME to Big Bend National Park! It was pretty awesome!
Spring Break 2024 road trip to eclipse totality in Texas!
April 4th-5th, day 6-7 of our 11 day trip, led us to Big Bend National Park.
It was an awesome day and a half exploring the Western part of the park. We started at the Maverick Junction entrance then went South on Old Maverick Road. This was an unpaved road with plenty of washboard bumps all the way to Santa Elena Canyon before we got back on pavement again. After hiking Santa Elena Canyon (will be highlighted in separate video), we ventured Northward through the park on the scenic road. We visited many of the sites and destinations along this route to our campground at Chisos Basin. This was a coveted, hard to get, campground reservation. It took weeks of trying via the internet reservation system to acquire a site for the night. It was well worth the effort. It was a beautiful area of the park. We also visited the dinosaur exhibit site in the North part of the park. It was a great sampling of things to do and see in BBNP. We will be back for more!
Enjoy!
