Park at the MoonThis "park" is essentially the peak of the El Paso Scenic Drive and the main viewing area to take in the spectacular views of both El Paso and Juárez, Mexico. There's ten "normal" parking spots and one handicapped spot. I'm not sure if these ever get filled up at certain times of the year, but on our visit (late Dec), there was plenty of parking. Be respectful of the houses surrounding the area and don't trash the place, as others have already clearly done. Also, be aware that this section of road is closed to vehicle traffic on Sundays and is a pedestrian corridor only. It's definitely worth a stop if you're visiting or even just passing thru El Paso, as the whole thing can be seen in under 30 minutes.

This park is a highest point of the scenic drive and it's at 555 feet above Rio Grande. Really great stop, no problem to find the parking, since people stop by, admire the view for 15 minutes and move on-nothing else to do there.The views are spectacular and you can see El Paso, Ciudad Juarez and Chihuahuan desert on display-the most beautiful views probably at sunset.
