Hueco Tanks State Historic Site
6900 Hueco Tanks Road No 1 El Paso TX 79938 915-857-1135
Just a 45-minute drive east from downtown El Paso, Hueco Tanks, one of the most historical sites in Texas, because of its pictographs and its use as a stagecoach stop along the old Butterfield Trail, is a haven for rock climbers from around the world. Climbing, hiking, rock art, and birding tours are held regularly. Camping is available. Access is limited to control crowd size, and reservations are strongly recommended even for daytime visits.
