Big Bend National Park. Big Bend is one of the largest and least visited of America's national parks. Over 801,000 acres await your exploration and enjoyment.
From an elevation of less than 2,000 feet along the Rio Grande to nearly 8,000 feet in the Chisos Mountains, Big Bend includes massive canyons, vast desert expanses, and the entire Chisos Mountain range. Here, you can explore one of the last remaining wild corners of the United States, and experience unmatched sights, sounds, and solitude.
In Big Bend National Park all roads end at the Rio Grande, the boundary between the United States and Mexico. Contrasting elevations create additional, varied micro-climates that further enhance the diversity of plant and animal life and the park’s wealth of natural boundaries.
