Things to do in Big Bend National Park (Ride a donkey into Mexico)

Riding a donkey into Mexico was just one of the unexpected things to do in Big Bend National park that we found during our stay there. We also went hiking in the Chisos basin, in search of wildlife and amazing views. While there we stayed at the Rio Grande Village campground.

I love Mexico. I emigrated from Tucson, Arizona to Hope, B.C. (Canada) in 1970 due to the Vietnam War. I worked for Jim Mitchell of Mitchell's Hardware and Sporting Goods in downtown Hope in 1970. I loved Hope, too. It was a beautiful place. Mitchell later became a jail guard at the RCMP lockup in Hope. Saludos desde Prince George (Príncipe Jorge), Columbia Británica, Canadá.

We have a video on Price George, too! Neat place to visit, just not in June with all the mosquitoes 🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟

[@erikalfan1027]

That is absolutely beautiful what a lovely views of nature right there

[@HomeARoam]

It was so beautiful, especially around sunrise and sunset

[@carolnavan4137]

What a great day trip. On my bucket list now. ❤

[@HomeARoam]

Lots of beautiful views in this park. The camera can't do it justice

[@edenfromafrica4725]

We loved your Mexican outing and your international ferry ride. Definitely doing that excursion!!!

[@HomeARoam]

It's so worth it, we had a hoot trotting around on those donkeys 😂

[@sktbrd13gy1]

My wife and I did this last year. It was super easy to cross and come back. It was also very safe and there were no worries of being harmed.

[@HomeARoam]

Yeah it was a great experience! The virtual customs call coming back in the US was something we had never experienced before either.

[@sktbrd13gy1]

@HomeARoam same here but super easy and convenient

[@jameskim62]

NICE PLACE TO VISIT !!!!!!

[@HomeARoam]

Yes it was!

[@jerrydaminato743]

Great info. We’re thinking of making Big Bend a stop.

[@HomeARoam]

Lots of great hikes and the star gazing is wonderful, too! It's a dark sky designated area.

[@katehudson8010]

Looks like that side of Mexico is better than Progresso ...Mel i loved your Hat and we want to ride a donky too...😊

[@HomeARoam]

Thanks! I got it in Valle de Guadalupe in Baja last year 🌵

[@tracyreaume6451]

Those look like desert bighorn sheep (we have mountain sheep in the AB/BC Canadian Rockies)! And the birds - some kind of Roadrunner and perhaps a Mexican Jay. Great video you guys, I’ve added this NP to our list. That’s a pretty reasonable cost for such a memorable day. 🇲🇽 🇺🇸 How do you decide how many days you spend at a certain place - couldn’t you have stayed longer at BB?

[@HomeARoam]

The park turned out to be pretty busy, so reservations, we would say, are a must at this time of year (December).

Was the Coyote chasing the road runner? Beep beep
