Park visitors enjoy sightseeing, hiking trails, picnicking, mountain biking, equestrian trails, fishing  in a 120 acre lake & primitive campsites (some with hookups).  It is the perfect place to bring your telescope and view our dark starry nights.  The park is located 3.5 miles north of Quitaque on F.M. 1065. visit Caprock Canyons State Park
