Scenic Ross Maxwell Drive in Big Bend National Park

Texas Monthly magazine calls this drive the best bike ride in Texas...and they're right, but it is also a great motorcycling ride and car ride, too.  In the heart of Big Bend National Park, the drive gives you terrific views of the mountains and the desert floor to the Rio Grande.  You are treated to the sights of Mule Ears and Santa Elena Canyon, and you can stop at Castolon Historic District and La Harmonia store.
