Activities
Fishing/Bow Fishing
Cast your line into adventure at El Papalote Ranch, where our lakes are perfect for anglers of all skill levels. Teeming with bass, catfish, and the occasional gar, our waters can be a relaxing (and often exciting) break from sitting stands. Bring your own gear or borrow some of ours! Fly, spin and bow fishing is all a great experience.
Skeet Shooting
Ready to test your skills? Feel the thrill as you take aim at fast-moving clay targets in our skeet shooting range. This engaging activity is ideal for sharpening your shooting skills, building confidence, and having a great time with friends or family. With guidance available for all experience levels, it’s a fun and dynamic way to enjoy the outdoors.
Photo Safari
Ready to capture the wild side of the ranch? There is no better way to immerse yourself in the landscape than on an open air safari riding in one of our outfitted Jeep Gladiators. Sit up high and enjoy the sights as you see over 30 species roaming the ranches 3,250 acres! From herds of Zebra and Impala to elusive Kudu and Sable, every trip out in the field brings something new.
Shooting Range
With a mix of targets, dueling trees and ranges, the shooting range isn’t just for sighting in your rifles! Enjoy a friendly competition or just get a few rounds of practice in at our shooting range.
Around the lodge
Take a refreshing dip in the pool, unwind in the spa, or cozy up to the firepit with a refreshing beverage. Morning, noon or night, the views from the patios and deck will bring something new. From stargazing and meteor watching, to seeing animals crossing the open fields and swimming in the lake to our famous South Texas sunsets, there is always something to see.
