The Mesa Rim Trail is a flat, relatively easy path that winds around the mesa, hence its name, providing breathtaking views of the park's southeastern region. Along the way, you'll see plenty of wildlife as the route makes its way down to the Red River. The route is primarily packed sand and crosses a few stream beds during your hike. This trail typically has fewer visitors than other trails in the park, offering a chance to take time to enjoy the tranquility of the peaceful surroundings.
