18 Miles East of Langtry is a thoughtful courtesy of the Texas Highway Department. At the east rim of the canyon, there are two spots for viewing the Pecos River. One is south of the highway and might not be apparent to the driver heading west.

Both are great for photos, but the South side location is actually a roadside park with picnic tables. This is the best single view of the entire region.

Del Rio, Texas

"A sleepy little border town"

I've made about a half dozen trips to Del Rio in the last year. I travel across the border into Acuna for business. Del Rio has little going for it besides its location. Acuna is right next door. The Largest Lake in Texas is within driving distance. Everything else is just small town Texas.

Oh... its hot has hell in summer time.

I can recommend the Ramada Inn. Ask for the business suites. They are much better than the normal rooms.

Del Rio does not have much in the way of night life or dinning. That’s all across the border in Acuna. If you don’t like whataburger, you might starve here.
