Franklin Mountains State Park
After dropping off my wife at the shopping mall, the twins and myself headed off a freeway which brought us into the heart of the Franklin Mountains. It’s amazing that this mountain range cuts through the very heart of El Paso and the city built itself around it.
There were nice scenic viewpoint and we stopped to take pictures…the parking was very adequate for this scenic views and it was easy to go back on the freeway.
The park is also a great place for hiking, mountain biking and picknicking, and some available “primitive camp sites”.
Accessible from Transmountain Road north of El Paso
