Barton Warnock Visitor Center
Barton Warnock Visitor Center Review
A self-guided walking tour through a landscaped 2.5-acre desert garden provides insight into the cultural history and natural resources of the Big Bend area. It's a good way to get acquainted with the Chihuahuan Desert before touring the park. Also on the grounds are an interpretive center, a covered picnic area, a bookstore, and a gift shop.
