Trail Overview
This is an amazing drive in the Terlingua ranch area. This public road takes you deep in to the desert where there's a hidden gem. The remnants of an abandoned Resort and what looks like a 100-year-old dam. The journey will be a slow and steady one on this gravel, rocky desert mountain road. With a couple of steep areas and a few small ledges about 4" to 8" high. Great for a sunset trail ride.
Difficulty
The trail is 60% easy gravel two-track with some 4"- 8" rocks and two steep uphill section with loose rocks.
History
This was going to be a resort. They built a dam and started to build the resort and the dam broke and the project was left behind.
