Robbers Cave State Park comes by its name honestly. Frank and Jesse James and Belle Starr all hid out in this famous cave.
Its proximity to roads leading into Texas made the cave a popular place to stash loot. During the Civil War, deserters from both sides hid here.
The 12-mile Robbers Cave trail system offers a network of nature walks near the notorious cave, as well as a backpacking trail that meanders over the park's rugged terrain. Sixty miles of horse trails traverse the park and adjoining areas.
The 8,400-acre park has 106 campsites, 26 cabins, a 20-room lodge, a sanitary dump station and a grocery store.
There is fishing and swimming in Lake Carlton and Lake Wayne Wallace.
