The Rito de los Frijoles is about 13 miles long. At this location in the Bandelier National Monument, it cascades over rocks as the Upper and Lower Frijoles Falls. A refreshing destination for a hike.

Running

Lower Frijoles Falls is the last stop on the Falls Trail before it terminates. Here, hikers get a view over the Lower Frijoles Falls, where, in different seasons, water can be flowing low or rushing out! In the winter months, it gets cold enough for ice cycles to form around the falls. The canyon around the falls has multicolored rocks and foliage that changes with the seasons as well.
