How Crowded Is Amistad National Recreation Area in November?

In a typical November the park sees about 71,000 recreation visits, based on National Park Service monthly counts from 1979 to 2025.

That makes November the 9th-busiest of the park's twelve months, sitting between the May peak (1.3×) and the January low (0.7×).

Typical November weather, from 1991–2020 NOAA climate normals at the nearest station, averages a daytime high near 71°F and an overnight low around 49°F, with about 1" of precipitation.

That average of about 60°F is a comfortable range for hiking and being outdoors all day.

Because June, July and August together draw about 29% of annual visitors, choosing November instead steps outside that summer crush — the single biggest lever on how crowded the park feels.

You'll have about 10.5 hours of daylight in November to explore — between the 10.1-hour midwinter low and the 13.9-hour summer high.

Park-wide, 2025 drew 734,293 recreation visits, down 11.8% from 832,294 in 2024.

Across the past decade overall visitation has eased about 28.8%, so November may feel a touch quieter than it once did.
