Trail Overview

Because Texas has very little public land, what better way to check out most of it in one trip. Starting off with a piece of International history on the east edge of the route, then winding down through Cyprus, Ponderosa and Mimosa trees along the largest lake in Texas then out and across the remaining sections of National Forest over the next couple of days. Camping options range from high end RV Parks to solo dispersed sites along the lakes or in the woods. Terrain varies from red dirt to rock to black clay, all of which changes with just a little bit of rain. You will cross parts of El Camino Real if history intrigues you at all.

The first tree has a bypass that you can see others have been using. The full trunk blocking the road is further into the trail.
