Terlingua Area, Texas

Terlingua Area, Texas

    This is the County Road that turns North at the Terlingua Store on HWY 170.  There are several places to get out and ride your mountain bike or to do some 4 Wheel Driving in your truck.  Pay close attention to where you go or you will get lost.

Flat tire in Terlingua

Climbing hills in the truck

    You will find several places where you can stop and ride, just watch out for cactus.  Walking the bike is not as much fun as riding it, as you can see from the first picture.  However, driving is always a good way to get up a hill.

Terlingua Area, Texas

Terlingua Creek, Terlingua Texas

    There is plenty of room for 4 wheel driving and mountain biking.  Bring some water and leave plenty of time.   Remember, you always have to ride back too.  Don't get to far out because there is no one out there to help you if you cannot make it back.
     The second picture is of Terlingua Creek during the dry season (almost all year).  When it rains this area is completely under water.  In the distance there is water across the trail.
