Randall County, Texas

Randall Location Map Texas

The Panhandle of Texas is home to Randall County. It’s a place where the wide-open sky meets endless prairie. Canyon is the county seat and is where you’ll find West Texas A&M University.

It’s not all flat land, though. Palo Duro Canyon, the second-largest canyon in the United States, cuts through the eastern part of the county. Locals love to hike its colorful rock formations. Amarillo, the region’s biggest city, spills over into Randall County from the north.

Ranching is still big business here. You can often spot cowboys tending to cattle on the sprawling ranches. The county is named after Horace Randal, a Confederate brigadier general. Funny thing is, they misspelled his name when naming the county. Oh well. It stuck.
