Boquillas Canyon Trail follows the rim of the canyon from a parking lot. It leads to a high cliff with an overlook of the Rio Grande and visitors can see mortar holes from the ancient peoples that lived in the area. The trail eventually leads down to the banks of the river until the canyon walls close in and meet the river, ending the trail.

Very easy hike in to the canyon. Horses and donkeys line the trail. Wear water shoes to wade in the river at the end. Locals may be selling tamales and souvenirs.
