Nothing thrills the heart of a true explorer like the stunning diversity of outdoor adventure that awaits in the state of Texas! From the beauty of the Gulf Coast to the High Plains, Texas offers terrain that varies between mountains, woodlands, rolling hills, semi-arid plains and high desert. With more than 78 state parks and numerous wildlife areas, historic sites and natural attractions, Texas truly has something for everyone.


Insiders know that camping in Texas is much more than just hanging out around the campfire. In a state that boasts everything is bigger, natural features as well as wildlife areas are vast and rich, begging the weary traveler to indulge in all the sights and experiences this type of diversity provides. The variety of parks, campgrounds and backcountry offers the full range of adventure for those looking to ‘rough it’ all the way to those who choose to enjoy nature with a few more comforts. 


South Central Texas is a prime area of the state to explore. Known far and wide as the Hill Country, it is so named for its rolling hills and woodlands. Famous for its excellent wineries, historic small towns and natural beauty, the Hill Country also boasts a unique offering for campers known as Enchanted Rock State Park. 


Enchanted Rock is a large pink granite dome that rises 425 feet above the surrounding terrain and is the largest granite monadock in the United States. Indians, Spaniards and early settlers all had stories of magical, spiritual or unexplained happenings around the rock which gave the feature its name. These days, one of the most intriguing sights is at night, after a rain. The wet dome seems to glitter in the moonlight and while regarded as a simple play of light on the granite, the effect adds to both the mystery and enchantment of the area. 


Another intriguing site in the Hill Country is Jacob’s Well, a short 78 miles southeast from Enchanted Rock State Park. Fed by a natural artesian spring, Jacob’s Well consists of a large pool connected to a vast underground cavern system that sprawls more than 4300 feet. The spring is connected to the Trinity Aquifer and emits thousands of gallons of water each day where visitors can enjoy the cool 68 degree water. Jacob’s Well is a popular and welcome retreat from the famous Texas heat!


Texas is the second largest state and for some, camping in Texas can, and does, turn into a life-long pursuit. With so many hidden gems, and areas to explore, it could take decades to experience it all. The Dyrt has you covered though! For the secret hideaways and must-see adventures in Texas, check back often to see the latest insider tips and places to explore!

If you’re ever passing through the Lone Star state, don’t miss this Texan favorite. Lake Mineral Wells is located in–surprise–Mineral Wells, Texas, just west of Fort Worth. The park is described as not only gorgeous and scenic, but also great for the whole family, too. The biggest attraction to this park, besides the lake from which its namesake comes, is that the space here is perfect for camping and extended hikes. The lake provides visitors a refreshing opportunity to cool off, as swimming is one of the most popular recreational activities here. Fishermen and women will be rewarded with an abundance of crawfish and bass, another reason this destination is a local favorite. On top of that, Penitentiary Hollow in the park is one of the few places in Northern Texas where one can try their hand at climbing natural rock formations. Visitors at Lake Mineral Wells also have a variety of picturesque trails to choose from. Trails here are known to be so scenic you’ll have to fight the urge to stop for a photo op every few moments. It’s easy to imagine why, too! Just picture yourself following one of the trails that leads down to the lake: to your left you see a turtle happily sunbathing on a boulder, while wild deer and scavenging squirrels look for something to munch on to your right. In total there are over 31 miles of trails you can hike or bike on, and 25 of those allow you to explore on horseback. If you do bring your horse with you, equestrian campsites are available at the same rate as primitive campsites, $14 per person per day.
