    Tips

    November 10, 2023

    From the The Upper Slide Trail Trailhead, or Cascabel Trailhead, you can access the northeastern end of the popular Slide Trail, which links up to the Orilla Verde Campground and Taos Junction Bridge and Boat Launch. There are several parking spaces and vault toilets here for you to use, which are good to know about if hiking up from the Taos Overlook Trailhead that does not have any facilites.
