Texas Mountain Adventures guides take you to the most scenic trails and back country roads in far West Texas. Many trails have seen few human visitors until recently. They are quiet and pristine, and often well away from civilization. Most destinations are private ranches and preserves where no access is allowed without a guide.

   Among Texas Mountain Adventures day trips is a spectacular hike to the top of Mt. Livermore, at 8,378 feet one of the highest points in Texas and the southern Rockies. Canyons below the peak shelter groves of aspen, silverleaf oak, Chisos red oak, Southwestern white pine, ponderosa pine and pinon pine. Among the critters are mule deer, bobcats, mountain lions, foxes, coyotes and javelinas. 
   The Davis Mountains and surrounding Big Bend area of Texas are recognized by birders as prime venues for a wide variety of species, some more typically seen in the Sierra Madre of Mexico. Texas Mountain Adventures arranges birding hikes to match the habitat and seasonal movement of desirable species.

   Prices depend on distance to trailheads, terrain, location and season. A typical easy to moderate half-day for a couple, family or small group would be $100, with prices ranging up to $200 or more for a day trip up Mt. Livermore with two guides. Please email for more detailed information.
