Big Bend National Park – More hikes and drives

There are all types of hikes available in this park. Some are short ½ mile paved trails while others are miles long and require camping on the way. While Lost Mine was our favorite, we both liked Santa Elena Canyon Trail. This trail is along the Rio Grande for a while and takes you back into a canyon in this long humongous mountainous wall 1,500’ above the Rio Grande.




There were nature trails and trails to hidden canyons.

 

Some trails took you to old ranches which serve as an oasis for plant and animal life.




Finally, the Window View Trail takes you to this view.
