Start by downloading the Action Tour Guide app, which acts as your personal tour guide, audio guide and map all in one. This self-guided driving and walking tour of Guadalupe Mountains National Park reveals striking peaks towering over the Chihuahuan Desert. The salt flats and dunes, which resemble the surface of the moon, conceal traces of prehistoric seas, while the canyons and springs scattered throughout the park reveal unexpected sources of life.
Meander through the splendour of McKittrick Canyon, where a stream provides the water necessary to sustain an abundance of life. Take in the sight of Guadalupe Peak rising in the distance from the porch of Pratt's Cabin, nestled within the canyon.
As you explore the park, you'll discover the stories of the soldiers, Apaches, conservationists, stagecoach drivers and ranchers who have all left their mark on this wilderness, and who have also been shaped by it. Discover the remains of ranch life at Frijole Ranch and Manzanita Lake, and learn about the hardships endured by stagecoach drivers and travellers on cross-country journeys at the Pinery Butterfield Station Ruins.
Park your vehicle at the Guadalupe Peak Viewpoint to witness "The Top of Texas" and be amazed by the nearby El Capitan mountain, which conceals the fossilised remains of a prehistoric reef.
Trek through the dramatic Devil's Hall Trail, where steep canyon walls conceal a rocky path. Alternatively, if you're seeking an easier hike, try the Manzanita Springs Trail.
