Best Peaks and Viewpoints

Big Bend National Park's landscape is defined by the dramatic contrast between the volcanic Chisos Mountains and the Chihuahuan Desert. This collection highlights the park's most significant geological features, from the 7,825-foot summit of Emory Peak to the sheer limestone walls of Santa Elena Canyon. These viewpoints offer perspectives on distinctive formations like the twin Mule Ear Peaks, the narrow mountain drainage known as The Window, and panoramic vistas across the Rio Grande into Mexico.
