Hiking
This middle point on the Kwaaymii Nature Trail is home to a large Sierra Juarez pine tree (also known as piñon), some other smaller pines, and prickly pear cactus.
The Kwaaymii were inhabitants of the Laguna Mountains, and the sights and signage along this interpretive nature trail help you visualize some of the ways they used and connected with nature in their daily life.
The hike looping around Piñon Point and the interpretive trail is a great warm up hike first arriving to the area after visiting the Visitor Center, or a good choice for an easy family hike.
