One of the most incredible parts of visiting the Chinati Hot Springs is the journey there. A drive through deep canyons, across creeks and high peaks, this breath-taking experience is why many say this is the greatest drive in Texas. Spectacular vies of the area’s natural wonders, such as Chinati Peak and Cathedral Rock, highlight this drive along the Pinto Canyon Road. You can witness wildlife such as mule deer, wild cats, Aoudad sheep, jack rabbits and much more in their natural environment. If you’re really lucky you might get the chance to see a black bear, which has been experiencing a comeback in this area of Texas in recent years. A higher clearance way involves a short drive into the mountains and away from reality. The scenic drive from Marfa offers wonderful mountain views along the entire stretch of road out to Highway 170 where you will treated to awesome views of the Chinati Mountains to your right and the Mexican border to your left as you make your way to Ruidosa and up to the Springs.
Box 67 Candelaria Route
From Marfa there are two routes to the Hot Springs. From 2810 to Pinto Canyon Road is about 50 miles to the hot springs, but is recommened for high clearance vehicles. This beautiful, rugged way, which is unpaved for about 20 miles, takes about an hour and 45 minutes. The alternate route takes about two hours. Marfa to Presidio is 59 miles on 67 South. It is another 36 miles to Ruidosa where there are signs for the Hot Springs. About a half mile outside Ruidosa, Hot Springs Road will take you seven miles to our gate.
