Summary

There’s no dispersed camping. Reservations are recommended via the Texas State Parks website, and fees apply (entry + nightly camping). The park’s remote, rugged landscape features desert scrub, limestone hills, and striking night skies, ideal for stargazing. RVs are allowed, but no sewer hookups. Scenic trails like the Armadillo Lookout Trail and cave tours (by reservation) enhance the experience. Spring and fall offer the best weather. The park’s solitude and natural beauty make it a peaceful, off-the-beaten-path retreat.

Camping Essential Practices

Pack It In, Pack It Out
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
