Description

Most automobile traffic crosses the Rio Grande at established bridge points at one of the fifteen sister cities. This "International Ferry" at Los Ebanos is the last hand-pulled ferry along the river. It can carry three vehicles per trip. Privately managed, it supports two of the smallest customs stations found along the border.
