Today, thanks to renovations and an accompanying museum, the fort's remains can be explored and the town has become a charming getaway in the Big Bend. The Davis Mountains State Park is just four miles northwest of Fort Davis, and offers an extensive array of hiking trails, camp sites, and scenic outlooks to some of the best views around. It's a great stop if you're hoping to get a little closer to the natural beauty of the landscape. If you're not ready to turn in after a day of hiking, the McDonald Observatory is located 17 miles outside of Fort Davis off Texas Highway 118. It boasts several massive research telescopes and provides an incentive for you to stay up a little later for a close-up view of the West Texas night sky. For questions and scheduling visit McDonaldObservatory.org There are also several art galleries you don't want to miss that contain some fine examples of western painting, sculpture, and striking photography by regional artists and Fort Davis locals.
