Terlingua Ranch Primitive Camping
Terlingua Ranch Primitive Camping is located near rugged terrain with desert landscapes. Temperatures can range from highs in the 90s Fahrenheit during summer to lows in the 30s in winter. Nearby attractions include Big Bend National Park and the historic Terlingua Ghost Town.
Description
Our primitive campgrounds include upper sites overlook Terlingua Ranch and all sites have a panoramic view of the Christmas Mountains, Corazones Peaks, and Whitehouse Mountain. Our lower sites are convenient to all Ranch amenities, including the bathhouse, pool, disc golf, horseshoes, cafe, corral and hiking opportunities. The upper sites are scenic but require a longer walk or short drive to our other facilities.
Terlingua Ranch is nearly 200,000 acres of land spread between Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park. Our facilities are remote but centrally located to the many activities available in the Big Bend region.
