"Where to Purchase Gas and Propane" Top 5 Page for this destination Big Bend National Park Transportation Tip by KimberlyAnn

  Cerro Castellan and Blind Prickly Pear
by KimberlyAnn
 
 

There are three paved roads within the park and a number of unpaved roads. There is no public transportation offered within the park, so you will have to supply your own transportation, both for getting to the park, and getting around within the park where you can see views such as the Cerro Castellan with its volcanic layers along the Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive, and access trail heads.
For filling up your gas tanks there are two gasoline stations in Big Bend. One is at the Rio Grand Village on the southeastern side of the park, and the other is at Panther Junction, the most centrally located Visitor Center and Park Headquarters. Both stations have gas, diesel, and can do a few minor repairs. The Rio Grande station also has propane.
