One of our favorite places to enjoy the great outdoors is at Palo Duro Canyon. With over 30 miles of hiking trails and a number of campsites to choose from, it’s great for a weekend retreat. The canyon within the state park is widely considered a Texas landmark—even though it’s not as huge as the Grand Canyon, we still think it’s pretty great. There’s also a large variety of wildlife roaming the park! You’ll see some aoudad sheep, mule deer, and maybe even a bobcat! Palo Duro is also great for looking at wildflowers in the spring. All campsites must be reserved; so be sure to call ahead before planning your weekend trip!
