Tips from the community

Honorable Mentions: Riverbend Hot Springs, Recycled Roadrunner Sculpture, Ra Paulette’s Hand-Carved Caves, Rude Boy Cookies

We snagged a casita between Santa Fe & Taos and plan to hit all the best hikes within reach. Food stops are for take-out only, national parks will be visited on off-days, and museums will have to be saved for the next trip (RIP Meow Wolf).
