Pine Tree Trail Loop Reviews

As a runner, I thought I could do this rather quickly but it ended up taking me a bit longer than expected but partly because I took a lot of photos. I was headed to White Sands National Park for sunset but the entrance closed right at 5pm. I would definitely go back to explore more!

Very nice, one of our favorite hikes in New Mexico. However this is NOT an “easy” hike, we would call it moderate.

Have hiked this trail a couple of times , in the winter and in the summer. Nice scenery everytime.

Nice quick hike close to town. The scenery is awesome... These pictures don't do it justice.
