The Coolest Place in Texas

Located in the beautiful Davis Mountains, at an elevation of 4,982 feet, Fort Davis, Texas is the coolest town in the Lone Star State! Fort Davis is characterized by its small-town charm, breath-taking mountain scenery and is home to several well-known attractions.


The Fort Davis National Historic Site is one of the best remaining examples of a U.S. Army fort. Established in 1854 on the San Antonio–El Paso Road through west Texas, the fort was strategically placed to protect emigrants, mail coaches, and freight wagons, and played a key role in controlling activities during the Comanche and Mescalero war trails.
