    Hiking

    The Point of Rocks Trail is a half-mile loop trail introduced in 2010 along the El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro National Historic Trail in New Mexico. It offers an easy hike with educational signage highlighting the history and natural features of the area. The trail provides views of the Jornada del Muerto desert and connects hikers to the broader historical context of the Spanish settlers who once traveled this route. It's a short, accessible trail that complements the nearby Yost Escarpment Trail​.
