Reviews of Marufo Vega Trailhead
"Be careful and mindful with this trail. Last weekend a 14 year-old and his stepfather died in this trail due to extreme temperatures (119F). "The Marufo Vega Trail winds through extremely rugged desert and rocky cliffs within the hottest part of Big Bend National Park. No shade or water makes this strenuous trail dangerous to attempt in the heat of summer, according to park officials.""
"Possibly one of the toughest day hikes in the park, splendid isolation. If you do the full loop it requires some scrambling and going over loose scree. I highly recommend taking the one mile side trail down to the river, there are some nice little riffles and beaches. From April to October this probably a dangerous hike with a high risk of heatstroke."
"I did the Marufo Vega Loop which is 14 mile round trip. This hike is beautiful! And it is challenging. You will need 1 gallon of water for each person or more and food. It took us 8 1/2 hours to complete all the loop, with lunch stop and pictures. The trail is primarily marked with cairns you need to look and put attention on this. We did not see any person the whole time. The trail has amazing views!!!!!. I will recommend start from the south because you will see the water sooner but only thing is steep going down. If you take the North you will walk around 2 miles or more until you see the water. It has no shade for about 4.7miles once you get to the water it has some parts with shade."
"I completed the Marufo Vega Loop. It's a beautiful but extremely challenging trail so be prepared. Bring all the water you need because there's none to be found en route except for the Rio Grande and there's no shade unless you crawl between the odd boulder crevice or find an overhang. The trail is primarily marked with cairns and there are some major elevation changes going back and forth from the river valley."
"Nice trail area and beautiful scenery but didn’t like being approached by a Hispanic man on a horse trying to sell junky souvenirs. Even offered to sell a tamale out of the saddlebag on his horse. Didn’t feel safe at all."
