When the water is high you can come down the 1,500 foot walled canyon. With less water flowing, guides take you 3 to 4 miles up the canyon with some spots having to portage. But take it all in stride because the views are breathtaking. I recommend Big Bend River Tours. You might get lucky and have the guides that take you a half mile up a side canyon. An excellent day excursion in the out of the way national park.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248621532643031/187b47af-173d-411b-8c0e-ebc616991017.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![View from the mouth of Santa Elena Canyon in Big Bend](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248621532643031/76e7e8cb-3354-4889-a606-7b3adf07967a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![Santa Elena Canyon 05-17-2017](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248621532643031/74f431d7-7c41-4543-8b20-6a280acb3644.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![Santa Elena Canyon is one of three narrow canyons that the Rio Grande has created in what is now Big Bend National Park, Texas.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6091074/cf38e289-e063-4352-80fb-47a88c0f9d9f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ## Terlingua Attractions Let Expedia help you experience the best that Terlingua has to offer!
