10 State Parks with Stunning Views

Of the 95 state parks in Texas, there are many that showcase the beautiful areas around them. Here are 10 of the best landscape vistas you can find, as selected by Dale Blasingame and featured in the January/February issue of Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine.

Big Bend Ranch

Whether you choose to stick to the paved roads of FM 170 or venture onto the unpaved roads in the interior of the park, you can’t go wrong with these views. Make sure to check out the views from FM 170’s Big Hill and the rock formations along the Rio Grande. More >>

Monument Hill

Monument Hill is home to perhaps the most underrated view in all of Texas. The trail from the visitors center features two fantastic overlooks: one looking down on the ruins of the old Kreische Brewery and the other over the Colorado River, with views of the rail bridge headed into La Grange.

Caprock Canyons

If you’re lucky, you’ll get to witness the beautiful scenery of the Caprock with a special guest, a bison. Caprock Canyons is the home of the state bison herd, which adds to the majesty of this park. A favorite spot to stop and breathe in the view is just before the Wild Horse Camping Area. More >>
