Robbers Roost Primitive Campsite — Big Bend National Park

Awesome campsite! If you can book it you won’t regret it. Road is easy compared to old ore road but you have to go slow. Hell of a view and three tent pads even though we camped out of the truck bed.

This campsite has a parking area for 2 maybe 3 vehicles and 3 small tent spots with 1 bear box that looked like it has seen a lot of bear action. It is down some really rough roads that will scratch your vehicle and even in a high clearance 4x4 it will take over an hour to get to the spot. It is one of the most remote spots in the park with absolutely no cell service on AT&T or Verizon. It is also not very close to any park attractions or trailheads. If you are looking for remote peace and quite this is the spot. We enjoyed 2 nights at this spot and because of how far into the backcountry it was we just stayed around the campsite and hiked the road. There is no shade at all so it does get hot even in January.

3 large sites that share one parking area.  vistas and views are incredible and almost located exactly in the "middle of nowhere".  wonderful place to watch sun rise and set over mountains.  One large bear box that is shared by all three tent sites. great base camp to explore the southern half of the park and you could spend your entire trip never seeing a paved road.  Around 20-30 mnt travel time from Panther Junction to site.  There is one considerable dip in road leading to site that may prevent all but the shortest tongued pull behinds from reaching the site. If you do get a trailer there, it will be staged in the parking area as the wooden borders that designate the tent camp areas are too narrow to get any vehicle thru. Be prepared to be isolated and tranquil and all the beauty that comes with it!!
