The Talpa Traverse trail is a popular trail with mountain bikers and hikers on the edge of the Carson National Forest on the edge of Taos. This trail features rolling hills through the forest with great views of town. This trail, however, is not an official forest trail and due to its proximity to Taos and residential areas there is a concern over it being shut down. Therefore please be respectful when hiking on this trail, especially when it dips closer to town and peoples' homes.
