Stargazing | Fox Acura of El Paso in El Paso, TXEvery relationship can benefit from the occasional date night. Whether you’ve been dating for four weeks or married for four decades, it’s one ritual that couples should regularly observe. Why not do something more exciting than your typical dinner and a movie? If you’re stuck for a terrific idea that’s sure to inspire that bonding moment, try one of these fun date night ideas in El Paso, Texas.

Go Stargazing

Spend the night with your sweetheart stargazing at Hueco Tanks State Park and Historic Site at 6900 Hueco Tanks Road. Explore the night sky while you stroll along on a guided tour hand-in-hand with your significant other. Share a telescope and watch the glittering night sky unfold before your eyes. Even the sunset drive out of the city limits is the ideal start to this romantic evening.

Indulge Your Kid at Heart

Take a leap of faith on love at Rockin’ Jump. If you’ve never jumped on a trampoline as an adult, you’re in for a treat. Leave the kids at home and get ready for some hilarious indoor fun at 4585 Ripley Drive #5 on the west side or, on the east side,1691 N. Zaragoza Road.

This activity is perfect for impressing your date or at least for a good laugh. If jumping isn’t your thing, try the vertical ops climbing wall or the slam dunk zone. Make sure to stretch before you hit the trampoline. Nothing kills the romantic mood like a pulled muscle — unless your date is willing to give you a massage.

Plan a Thrilling Adventure

There’s no better way to put your relationship to the test than by getting locked with your better half in a room where teamwork is the only way to escape. If you’re a couple who thrives on puzzles and cooperation games, head out to El Paso’s newest attraction — Operation Outbreak at 4530 Montana Ave.

This completely interactive experience starts with your choice of crime theme: Zombieland or London. Once you enter the room, the doors lock, and you only have one hour to search for clues and find your way out. End the night with a victory dance and a glass of wine.

Have a Glass of Vino

Mystic Grape Wine Bar and Suds at 2270 Joe Battle Blvd. is an intimate place to wrap up your adventure — or start it. A cozy portal to worldwide vineyards, Mystic Grape is a family-operated wine bar with an exquisite dining menu. From the carved oak doors to the rock-wall-style bar, this gem is an excellent place to take your date. Stop by for wine tastings, craft beer, or mixed drink, then satisfy your craving with a variety of tapas, salads, burgers, pastas, and premium entrees such as grilled swordfish steak.
