Big Bend in an RV
Desert, mountains and the Rio Grande in one park, and about as far from a city as you can get in Texas. Most people give it 4 days.
When to goNovember through April. Summer on the desert floor is punishing.
What fitsUp to 35 feet. Plenty of room to park and enough hookups that a trailer makes sense.
What catches people outRio Grande Village has the only hookups. The nearest real supermarket is ninety miles away.
Where you would actually stay
Picked for the trip rather than a list somebody was paid to be on. Anything with a link books direct with them, and we will do it for you if you would rather not spend the evening on hold.
