The second largest canyon in the country lies in the heart of the Texas Panhandle. Visit Palo Duro Canyon State Park; experience the canyon's rugged beauty and enjoy its colorful history.
Things to Do
Explore the canyon by foot, mountain bike, horse or car. We have more than 30 miles of hiking, biking and equestrian trails. Camp, geocache, study nature or bird watch. During the summer, enjoy a performance of TEXAS Outdoor Musical.
Choose from campsites with water and electricity, tent sites, equestrian sites, or backpack camping areas. Stay in one of three cabins on the canyon’s rim or four Cow Camp cabins on the canyon floor. Rent one of our pavilions for a wedding, reunion or meeting.
Enjoyed the park on our 4 night stay. We stayed in the Mesquite camping area which is situated towards the end of the park. It was quiet and there were plenty of trails to go exploring. Other than the burn ban I'll be visiting again.
Unbeatable views! Be aware there is a steep 10% grade road to travel if you have an RV or Trailer. There's lots of places within the campground to investigate, let alone throughout the park. Fire ring with cooking grate, covered tables, water, electric, fairly clean restrooms and showers. Expect to hear coyotes in the late night hours.
Nice campground Just bring along deet since there are flies during the day
This campsite wound up being perfect for us. We came with family who had the site next to us. It was pretty quiet. There is no road noise and barely any air traffic. The skies were mostly cloudy at night so I can't weigh in on the stars. There are trails all over and even more accessible from this campground if on a bike. Sites and surrounding areas were very clean. Picnic table is covered and in a way that compliments the area. We absolutely loved it here and are planning to come back.
Very scenic campground in the canyon. Views are excellent. Definitely recommend. Bathroom is old but clean.
