About Seminole Canyon State Park and Historic Site

Cave art and archeological remains here trace back to the earliest known human presence in the region, preserved within the larger Seminole Canyon Archeological District listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The grounds sit near the Pecos River High Bridge, off U.S. Route 90, and support camping, biking, bird watching, backpacking and archeological study. Visitors come both for recreation and for the chance to see artifacts tied to the canyon's long human history.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
