Fort Richardson State Park | North Texas State Parks

Join us as we explore Fort Richardson State Park and Historic Site, Northwest of Fort Worth, just outside of Jacksboro, Texas. In 1872 Fort Richardson was the largest US military installation in the United States housing almost 670 soldiers. It was established here as one in a line of frontier forts in the post Civil War Reconstruction era and went on to serve as a major outpost during the Indian Wars of the 1870s. Soldiers from Fort Richardson patrolled a roughly 300 mile radius, all the way to Palo Duro Canyon!

Today, you can tour the remnants of the fort, tent or RV camp, hike, bike, swim, fish or ride horses along the Lost Creek Reservoir State Trailway, part of the Rails to Trails program. We take you with us as we explore the park, do a bit of hiking, learn some history at the fort and the Jack County Museum, and stop in at the world famous Herd's Burgers.

Come along for the fun as we RV Texas Y'all!

As Native Texans and full-time RVers, we want to road trip from the beaches of the Gulf Coast to the canyons of the Texas Panhandle, the mountains of West Texas, and everywhere in between. Texas is home to forests, rivers, lakes, caverns, hills, grassy plains, and so much more. The history, the food, the culture, the nature... We want to explore it all and share it with you!

Join us as we explore the Great State of Texas and Beyond one campground at a time because we want us all to experience life, not just live it!

Safe Travels and Happy Camping y'all!
