The Wildcat Bluff Nature Center in Amarillo offers you an authentic prairie experience on around 640 hectares of Texas landscape. The various hiking trails, such as the Windmill Trail and the Lower Bluff Trail, lead you through rolling hills, wide grasslands and past historical sites such as the remains of an old windmill. The trails offer a good mix of easy to moderate sections, ideal for a hike through the open space.

Along the trails you will also find the habitat of prairie dogs and numerous native plants and animals, which makes the hike particularly interesting for nature observation. The Wildcat Bluff Discovery Center, which is also part of the nature park, also offers exciting information about the history of the region, as the area once played an important role on the historic Gregg-Marc Wagon Route.

The Upper Bluff Trail takes you to a hill with great views over the prairie and is particularly recommended in the morning when the landscape appears in soft light. Remember to bring sturdy shoes and water – out here on the prairie you can really feel the peace and space of Texas.
