Copper Breaks

I recently went here to catch the northern lights display/stargazing. It's beautiful and really peaceful. The coyotes freaked me out at night, though... lol. I called in advanced and asked about Car Camping, and the lady I spoke with (I think her name started with an M🤔), she was super helpful and kind. She tried to give suggestions on which spots would be best for my activity.

Excellent park, rangers were all very pleasant, helpful and informative. Was hoping to get some dark skies but didn't exactly check the moon cycle properly and caught it nearly full, got some great moon watching in though. Trails are nice, didn't get to do them all but glad to see that they were descent sized loops that mostly bring you back to your start location. Lastly meeting the longhorns was awesome, so sweet.

Came for the dark skies, got so much more! The rangers here are very engaging, got to feed longhorns and throw and atlatl, so cool. Park is so peaceful and was cool at night during my stay. Hiked 21 miles around the park, great trails and scenery throughout. No picture can do the stars justice. Sunsets are beautiful here as well. It was a bucket list park so glad I made the trek from San Antonio.

What a great little gem of a park! Beautiful dark skies and so quiet. The park staff was amazing and gave us so great tip for dealing with the triple digit heat, like driving up to Quanah and going to the Acme Pacific Railway. Biking is good for families and beginners if you are an early riser, temperature get unbearable by noon. When planning the trip there, please be aware that the trails seem to be geared toward horses more than bikes. That said, we had a great time and will come back when the temperatures go down.

Big and spacious spots. Plenty of walking, hiking, and biking trails. Creative little teepee style covers at our spot covering our table. Small little park, but our kids enjoyed it. Saw some deer and birds. Park is known for its dark skies where you can see thousands of stars and outer edge of milky way. Unfortunately, we had cloud cover and rain, so we couldn't see it.
