Big Bend National Park (September 4th 2026)

---

If you're looking for one of the greatest motorcycle rides in North America, Big Bend National Park should be on your list. It isn't a place of endless twisties like the Tail of the Dragon—it's about huge landscapes, solitude, and riding through some of the most remote country in Texas.

Here are the highlights:

• Over 100 miles of paved park roads with almost no stoplights or traffic. 
• Wide sweepers, elevation changes, and spectacular mountain scenery. 
• Speed limits are generally low (45–55 mph), so it's a ride to enjoy rather than race.  

Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive

• About 30 miles one way. 
• Many riders consider it the best road inside the park. 
• Highlights include: 
  • Sotol Vista Overlook 
  • Mule Ears Viewpoint 
  • Tuff Canyon 
  • Castolon Historic District 
  • Santa Elena Canyon at the end of the road.
