Hike to the Trampas Lakes in Carson National Forest
This hike is worth its weight in gold. By far one of the most beautiful places in all of New Mexico. Located in the Carson National Forest, the options for camping are limitless. Did I mention this is ranked one of New Mexico's best hikes yet it rarely gets done. The potential for solitude is very likely.The drive to the trailhead is a bit of a doosey. Start by heading east out of the tiny tow...
Hike La Senda de Medio Trail
If you find yourself in Taos for the weekend, the La Senda del Medio trail is a perfect hike to add to your adventure. About 20 minutes south of town and located in Rio Grande del Norte National Monument, this trail follows the Rio Grande for 2.5 miles and connects 5 different campgrounds.
The trail begins at Pilar Campground. Your GPS might not take you directly there, but the sign is large an...

Drive the Enchanted Circle Scenic Byway
Start the drive at the Taos Plaza in downtown Taos. You can drive the whole loop and enjoy the beautiful scenery and small villages along the way. In the spring, there may still be snowfall, making the drive even more beautiful.
Hike to Nambé Lake
Starting at the ski basin above Santa Fe, where parking is ample and the drive to reach it is staggeringly beautiful, you head north from the bottom of the parking lot from a well marked trailhead. The climb starts right out of the gate, and at a starting altitude of 10,000 ft above sea level you feel its toll right off the bat. This hike isn't overly long at 6.2 miles out and back, but the s...
Backpack to Lake Katherine in the Pecos Wilderness
Accessible June through October, snow lingers on the trail late into the summer. This is a very popular, well-marked route so if it's solitude you're seeking, you'll probably be disappointed. At least on the weekend.The trailhead is at the parking lot for Ski Santa Fe. You'll climb from 10,250 to 11,700 feet elevation at Lake Katherine. If you're feeling ambitious, you can hike Santa Fe Baldy f...
