Old Maverick Road provides an off-road alternative in lieu of the paved Ross Maxwell Scenic Highway, for those traveling between the Santa Elena Canyon and the western park entrance. The 14-washboard road provides quite the ride along the majority of the route but is easily accessible by all vehicle types. Note however that the road may become impassable after heavy rainstorms due to flooding. Be sure to take in the scenic views of the Terlingua Creek all along the route when you visit Big Bend National park and want to take the path less traveled.
