There's a story on every road in Texas — and most of them race past your windshield unread. TexasRoam turns the whole state into one living map of history you can actually explore, on foot or from the driver's seat. Start with 28,000+ official historical sites drawn from the Texas Historical Commission: roadside markers, frontier cemeteries, century-old county courthouses, museums, National Register landmarks, and state historic sites. Tap any pin to read its full marker inscription and the story behind it, get one-tap directions, and check in when you arrive. Filter by category, search by name, set a distance radius to see what's near you, and watch your map fill in county by county as you explore. THE MAP IS FREE — ALWAYS Every one of those 28,000+ sites is free to explore, forever, with no ads and no tracking. Earn points for the places you visit, get a check-in prompt as you arrive, climb the rank ladders from Roadside Rookie toward Lone Star Legend, and unlock regional titles as you claim your home county and the ones next door. There's no paywall on the history. TOURS FOR EVERY KIND OF ROAMER When you want a route instead of a map, pick a guided tour — nearly 400 across Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston, with more metros on the way. Whatever you're into, there's a tour for it: - Ghost & haunted tours for the brave - Outlaws, gunfighters, and the lawmen who chased them - Film & TV locations from the movies and shows shot in Texas - Military and wartime history - Railroad towns, founders, and the making of a city From the whistle-stop town of Allen to downtown Houston and historic Galveston, each tour strings the best stops into a real driving or walking route, with narration that starts automatically as you pull up to each stop — so the history comes alive right where it happened. THOUSANDS OF TEXAS TRAILS Lace up and go. Explore 3,500+ hiking, walking, and biking trails statewide, each with a write-up, difficulty rating, surface, and a real map. Filter by activity and distance to find your next loop close to home or wherever the road takes you. MAKE THE MAP YOURS Set a map theme in Profile. The new By Category view gives every pin its own personality — cemeteries turn spooky Boot Hill, courthouses go full Courthouse, landmarks stand tall — or switch to Dark Mode or a single category style for the whole map. A COMMUNITY OF ROAMERS Leave star ratings, write reviews, and add your own photos to any site, then see what other explorers have shared. Every contribution is reviewed before it appears, so the map stays accurate and trustworthy. TEXASROAM+ One subscription unlocks every guided tour and every trail across Texas — plus everything we add as the map keeps growing. The full historical-marker map and all of your points and ranks stay free. Sample a free tour and a free trail in each metro before you decide. - Choose monthly or annual - The marker map is never behind a paywall - New tours, trails, and metros included at no extra cost PERFECT FOR Road-trippers and RVers, history buffs and Civil War readers, genealogists tracing family graves, teachers and students, weekend walkers, and anyone who's ever driven past a marker and wondered "what happened here?"
