TIPS FOR DESERT CAMPING

If this is your first time visiting the Big Bend Area, here are some things you need to know about camping in the desert.

  • Watch out for that wind! Wind can pick up out of nowhere. Make sure to roll in your awning and secure anything that might blow away if you’re leaving your RV site for the day.

  • It’s dusty. No way around it...dust will be everywhere! It wouldn’t be camping in west Texas if there wasn’t a lot of dust.

  • Be mindful of the temperature. During the day, even with the temperature of 80 degrees, the sun can still feel extremely hot – and there is not a lot of shade out here. As soon as the sun sets it can get cold, we can have 40 degree temperature swings on a normal day. Make sure to bring light layers and jackets so you can sit under the stars, or around the campfire comfortably.

  • We’re dark skies friendly. Be cautious of what lights you’re using when you’re outside. Many people come here to enjoy those beautiful stars - if you don’t need the light please turn it off. If you do need light, red lights are recommended. Check out more about darks skies here.  

  • If it rains, be careful where you drive and hike! It can be raining miles away and create flash floods easily. There is also a lot of bentonite (expansive clay) on the roads in Big Bend. If it gets just a little rain it will coat your tires and you’ll have no friction to drive out - even if you’re in a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Please be cautious if it’s raining and ensure you’re prepared and you’ve checked conditions before taking off on an adventure in the remote area.  

  • Exploring the Big Bend region - there is a lot of undeveloped, beautiful land out here. Please be respectful as much is privately owned, including many of the dirt roads. If you’d like recommendations on places you can explore outside the Big Bend National Park or Big Bend Ranch State Park let us know, we’d be glad to help! 

  • Fill your gas tank often! There is only one gas station in town, the next closest is 20 miles away in Lajitas.  With the influx of tourists the little town gas station sometimes can’t keep up with demand. If you’re gas tank hits half way, it’s recommended that you fill up, just in case Terlingua / Study Butte runs out of gas.  It happens more than you’d expect, so it’s good to always be prepared.  

  • Water, water, water. Drink plenty throughout your day here...it’s hot and we have low humidity, so hydrate! Make sure you keep extra in your vehicle, you never know when you might need some.

  • Everything will Poke you! Even if these desert plants don’t look like they have thorns, take a closer look - they are sneaky.
