Where can I find cheap camping vacations in Texas?
The State of Texas has established tourist bureaus in some of the major Texas cities and near the entry point into the state along major highways. Part of the free information available includes brochures on state and national parks, including data regarding public campsites. They also have brochures on the various “Texas trails” (interesting and scenic journeys along good but lesser traveled roads). If you need data regarding private campgrounds, you might check with AAA or Kampgrounds of America or similar websites. Most campgrounds and RV parks are also listed in the yellow pages or are registered on line. You might also check with any well-stocked Texas library for back issues of Texas Highways magazine to locate additional attractions that may interest you. Texas Monthly magazine also sometimes has good articles and pictures (see the October 2006 issue for their favorite hiking trails, for example). Happy camping!!!
