More Information
Details: Caprock Canyons State Park, 100 miles southeast of Amarillo in Briscoe County, was opened in 1982. It consists of 15,313.6 acres (including the Trailway, a 64.25 mile Rail-to-Trail conversion, acquired by donation in 1992 from a Railroad entrepreneur). This acquisition added recreational adventure, stretching from the western terminus at South Plains up on top of the caprock escarpment to the eastern terminus of Estelline in the Red River Valley. This multi-use trail (hike, bike, and equestrian), opened in 1993, stretches the park, crossing 46 bridges and running through Clarity tunnel, one of the last active railroad tunnel in Texas. <br><br><b>Directions:</b>&nbsp;&nbsp;The park is 3.5 miles north of State Highway 86 in Quitaque on FM 1065.
