One of my favorite tx state parks. Beautiful place, looking more like Big Bend area every year…read more Lots of Pinyon Pines. Only open Friday to Monday I guess because of remoteness. 5 or 6 full hookup rv sites and lots of other camp sites with community water. A bath/shower house. You can get cell service if you take one of the hilltop trails. The bats come April thru October and are spectacular. Went down into a different cave a few years back. They lead the tour and give you a helmet but you need to bring your own lights. Make reserves for this. Lots of trails and great western birds. Pack all your trash out, no dumpsters. Not sure how much longer they will be open because their water well is scrapping the bottom. Wish our gov $$ would help the parks a little more. Saving some of our precious water rather than letting all the crypto and ai data centers use it all up. What a waste. Better hurry and enjoy this gem before it is gone.

It wasn't until 2010, that it became a state park. The state park is unique from the others; whereas the CCC didn't take part in building certain areas. As you walk on different trails you will find a water trove I used to feed the animals that lived on the land. There's a loud creaky windmill that moves when the wind blows; you would think that a spaceship is landing because of his loud screeching noise. If you are a birdwatcher, you are in for treat since there is a variety of birds that live in the park. Stop by the headquarters to pick up birds of the park booklet. If you like strenuous long hikes, there are two trails: Arroyo Camino and Barbados. Both lookout trails, a rocky and rugged with a incline going upward. It is best to bring trekking poles to keep your balance. If you rock hounder like me, you would absolutely need to go on the cave tour. I would suggest that you are regular hiker and somewhat fit to keep up the endurance of the tour. There are some loose rocks that can hinder your balance if you step on them and incorrectly. You don't have to be super physically fit, but it is recommended that you are active in your daily life to be able to handle the cave tour. I would even suggest healthy elderly folks; there was a couple in their 70s that hiked for four hours in the hot and humid climate of the cave. I wore my Columbia hiking boots and felt secure when climbing over the thick rocks. The tour was delightful and very cool! The website will tell you to bring a headlamp but is recommended that you bring a flashlight. The headlamps are good when you're going into the smaller holes. If you are up for the challenge! Don't forget your flashlight! Because you will not be able to see where you are stepping without it. You will see scorpions crickets daddy long leg spiders, you will hear the barking frog and pitch blackness of nothing. This was the coolest cave tour that I've been on outside of the caverns of Sonora. I will even have to say that it tops natural bridge and inner Space Caverns. And the reason why is because you will see graffiti dating all the way back from 1887 from people like you and me who got to explore during their time. Another fun thing about the park, is that they have a bat cave that at around 7:45 p.m. the bats fly out of the cave. That's pretty gnarly rad!! If you're wondering well where do I sleep, I love the campsites here because some are secluded. Unlike at Blanco State Park, you'll enjoy peace and relaxation knowing that you could kick back in your chair read a nice book and listen to the birds sing without anyone watching you. Of course there's only a few campsites that have that option. Some campsite come with the picnic table covered which is an added bonus if you ever have to go through the extreme rainstorm that we had yesterday evening. Don't expect to roast more over the fire, because there's a burn ban. However they do allow propane grills and other options for you to cook. Desert terrain with its dryness, driftwood, dry heat, you got to love West Texas. With all of that in mind, Kickapoo Caverns State Park is still considered the least visited state park in the state of Texas. Unfortunately it is underrated, come visit this bomb.com ass park!

When we visited, the rangers/staff were happy to see us and were very kind. The displays take up most of one room but were definitely worth a quick stop and check. We especially liked the artifacts and reproductions of artifacts. Those are always interesting to see. They also had a display of animal skulls and tracks that I'm sure younger kids would have been even more fascinated than me. Well, my 12 year old brain enjoyed them and was amazed at how fierce something that size seems. If visiting the area, check it out next time.
