Barton Warnock Visitor Center (at Big Bend Ranch State Park)
Mountain Trail Region
The remote and wild Big Bend country challenged the Buffalo Soldiers and famed Seminole Negro Indian Scouts in the late 1800s. Posted at Fort Davis, these soldiers patrolled huge, dry expanses; chased Apache bands across treacherous mountains; and tried to secure the restless Rio Grande border. You’ll get a real sense of their grit and survival skills against the backdrop of Big Bend's dramatic, unforgiving terrain when you visit Barton Warnock Visitor Center. Browse exhibits on the rich cultural and natural history of the Chihuahuan Desert and prepare for your journey into Big Bend Ranch State Park.
