Had a blast. With friends, it was a great off-road experience and getaway. Very accommodating, we had plans for a guided tour for the Saturday, but plans changed with the expected weather coming in. Came in on the Friday instead. ( remember no refunds ) We did part of the green and blue trails, suggested by the receptionist, Molly. It was fun with obstacles with amazing views. This will definitely test your driving skills. They are working on more accommodations, (bring all your own water and food). We had all stock jeeps in our group of three self guided, every beautiful country side can’t imagine this canyon is so large in the middle of all the plains, enjoyed the views!

Challenge yourself & get outside of your comfort zones. Great guides you can hire or ride with, very well ran by staff. Be sure to take your own air machines for your tires (no electricity or water).

Where can I even start? First off, the process to book a group with Molly is hands down one of the easiest people to work with. Any little hiccup she was on top of it and her smile shown through the phone. Getting there… she was very helpful in helping me get my group squared away and even though she was busy, I never thought I was an afterthought. Now let’s talk Merus. AMAZING! This is the place anyone from a parking lot princess to a trail queen can have a blast. The trails are all challenging in their own way. It’s obvious the folks at Merus take that park seriously and want to make sure groups of all sizes and levels have fun. We with Jeep Girl Mafia, TX Panhandle chapter will be back most definitely be back. Thank you, Molly! You are fabulous to work with and keep doing what you’re doing! It works!

The park was well worth the 350 mile drive from Mansfield, and the off-road experience driving our Ford Broncos throughout the gorgeous Palo Duro Canyon was fantastic & exciting. Additionally, our staff liaison, Molly, was the most helpful and wonderful person imaginable. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable about the park and surroundings, but she just exudes warmth, hospitality and genuinely cares about you having the best experience possible. If 6-stars were an option, I'd have rated it as such!

Our first ever off-road experience. We initially signed up for a green tour and at check in we decided to do the guided blue tour. The best experience ever and we look forward to seeing all the updates that they have planned.

This place is great. Everything was perfect. The service awesome (Molly)! I did the guided tour (tour guide Jeff) and it was amazing! I also camped at one of the camping point spots above the canyon at the views were top notch. Looking forward to going back.

Merus Adventure Park is a beautiful canyon with well maintained trails and markers. We just wrapped up the TrailRecon Challenge and it was a blast.
We spent three days, two nights, and the first day was cold and rainy. Despite the rain, the trails were ready to run after a few hours and had very little mud. The canyon seemed to drain exceptionally well.
We will be back for another long weekend full of adventure at Merus.

The tour guide was very surprised how capable the Outback Wilderness performed on the green and even on some of the blue offroad trails. We had a wild ride adventure and totally worth the experience.
