Franklin Mountains State Park | Texas State Parks
El Paso Texas , Texas

We visit Franklin Mountains State Park located just 15 minutes from El Paso. We hike the nature walk, Aztec Trail and visit an abandoned tin mine thats over 100 years old. If you enjoy hiking and biking this park for you.

Call of the Mountains
The Franklin Mountains provided most of the basic necessities of life for early people here. Today, the mountains meet a different human need – our need for time in nature. Come explore these high-desert mountains, just 15 minutes from El Paso.

Things to Do /Que se puede hacer?
Franklin Mountains State Park offers great hiking, biking and rock climbing. Visit for the day or camp overnight. Look for geocaches, bird (and nature) watch, or bring a picnic.

Hiking and Mountain Biking
Explore almost 27,000 acres (about 40 square miles) on over 100 miles of trail. Carry plenty of water and a cell phone, wear good shoes, dress for the weather, and travel with a partner. Be prepared for rugged desert terrain.

Camping
Stay at one of our campsites in the Tom Mays Unit. Walk to one of 14 tent sites, or park at one of five RV sites. Rent a group camp for your next gathering. Campsites do not have water or electricity; bring enough water for drinking, cooking and cleaning.

Rock Climbing
Climb at the designated area in McKelligon Canyon or at Sneed’s Cory in the Tom Mays Unit. Bring your own equipment. Stay safe, and follow best practices for climbing.
