About the Park
Big Bend National Park is the perfect oasis for people who love nature and exploring what this big, wide world has to offer! The NPS website offers this tantalizing description:
There is a place in Far West Texas where night skies are dark as coal and rivers carve temple-like canyons in ancient limestone. Here, at the end of the road, hundreds of bird species take refuge in a solitary mountain range surrounded by weather-beaten desert. Tenacious cactus bloom in sublime southwestern sun, and diversity of species is the best in the country. This magical place is Big Bend.
