Spreading across the unique cultural heartland of south Texas, the Tropical Trail Region encompasses 20 counties, 23,000 square miles and is home to 1.7 million residents. The Region’s Border Byway skirts the nation of Mexico and the Gulf Coast Byway runs along the Texas Gulf Coast. The rich landscapes in between are called the Brush Country Byway and the Wild Horse Desert Byway.

A SPECIAL THANKS OUR PARTNERS!

The Texas Tropical Trail Region heritage tourism program is a not-for-profit initiative developed by the Texas Historical Commission and organized in February 2005 with an eleven-member volunteer Board of Directors, a salaried Regional Coordinator and over 400 partners in tourism throughout the 20 county South Texas area known as the Texas Tropical Trail Region. Kingsville is the home of the Regional office located in the Kingsville Chamber of Commerce.

Our mailing address is:

Texas Tropical Trail Region
635 East King Avenue, Suite 102
Kingsville, TX 78363

Phone: (361)592-4603

It is the intent of the Texas Tropical Trail Region Board of Directors to showcase the heritage, natural beauty and diverse culture of South Texas for the benefit and enjoyment of Texans and travelers. To achieve this goal, the Board must first join hands with our tourism partners, community leaders, and state and local entities to identify, preserve and interpret our natural, historical and cultural resources.

Monthly meetings with educational presentations are the workshops to help make this goal a reality. These meetings are open to the public.
