I came here as a kid back in the early 2000s with my family and family friends who live there. It was absolutely amazing to see the views from the overlook along with getting a different atmosphere. The mountains are gorgeous and the weather was perfect for a night time picnic. You wont regret coming here.

My wife and I stopped to take a couple pictures of the beautiful El Paso/ Juarez lights at night. The view is spectacular. There are covered gazebos (although the two we had attempted to sit in were both overrun with rather large ants.)

This is one of my favorite places in El Paso. To go. Look out over the west side and joining community. Watch the day fade in to the evening. Any time to just watch the world go by. I love driving transmountain loop375. There lots of parking. Picnic tables. Trash cans. And always the veiw

Best place to watch sunset in El Paso. Plus the shining lights of the city below , perfect for relaxing. Has several shades and picnic area. We spend an hour here and brought some sandwiches. A lot of people were waiting but lots of parking space. I was glad we found this place made our stay here memorable.

A mountain vista overlooking El Paso, Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico. The view is spectacular when the weather conditions are favorable. It s extremely chill, clean, safe and free. I was able to get a few minutes of shut eye. This place is cool AF.

Theyre working so hard at keeping trans mountain clean, but people are people and so theres tons of tires at the bottom of the mountain and inappropriate trash that children shouldnt stumble on. Also, ALLLLL the teenagers go in the evening, so if youre not interested in that if you go further down the mountain there are hiking trails and other lookout points, they just arent as high as overlook 1.
