Adventure Camping Program




"Adventure Camping Program" Coming to Texas State Parks This
Spring
AUSTIN — The increasingly popular Texas Outdoor Family program is branching
out to deliver adventurous programs for families who are looking for something
more than an introductory how-to camping experience.

Four Texas state parks, including Big Bend Ranch, this spring will host Texas
Outdoor Family Adventure workshops designed to familiarize families with the
outdoors and teach them how to tent camp, cook outdoors and get the most out of
their outdoor experience. These events will occur in some of the Texas State Park
System’s larger, more remote sites.

Texas Outdoor Family adventure campouts dates are March 25-28 at Big Bend
Ranch, April 17-18 at Palo Duro Canyon, April 24-25 at Lost Maples State Natural
Area and May 15-16 at Colorado Bend State Park.

The Big Bend Ranch adventure camp will include a guided canoe trip down the
Rio Grande and a two-day desert camping program in the interior of Texas’
largest state park that encompasses more than 300,000 acres near Presidio. The
cost for the Big Bend Ranch camp is $86, plus $53 for canoe rental.
