Even in a state known for its individualism, West Texas’ Big Bend feels like a foreign country. Home to outlaws, ranchers, prospectors, railwaymen and modern artists, this place where the grasslands meet the desert has long been a magnet for outsider types of all stripes. Passion, eccentricity and a dogged determination to go one’s own way run deep out here. Must be something in the water.Whatever you bring to Big Bend, we’re confident you’ll leave with even more.

On this trip, we’ll bike roads skirting the stunning Chisos Mountain range, ride through Pancho Villa’s old stomping grounds and picnic by the shores of the Rio Grande. You’ll ride past authentic ghost towns, chow down on the world’s best barbequed grub and visit Marfa, an oasis of modern art in the middle of the desert.

Trip Highlights

• Take in views of stunning mountain vistas as you ride the curving roads of the Davis Mountains and Big Bend National Park

• In Marfa, visit the Chinati Foundation and the Prada Marfa art installation: the loneliest designer boutique in the world

• Spend the night at the luxurious Hotel Paisano, where James Dean filmed his last movie

• Dine at Etats-Unis, Marfa, the new restaurant from the creators of New York’s Michelin-starred Etats-Unis
