Dugout Wells

  • Address: 6 mi southeast of Panther Junction, Big Bend National Park, TX

Fodor's Review:

A windmill using the restless desert winds continues to siphon water from the lowlands, creating a shady oasis amid cactus and sand. The trees and foliage that drink from the well attract several varieties of birds, especially white-winged doves. A picnic table is available, along with a ½-mi nature trail. Guided walks are sometimes led here.
