ニューメキシコ周辺のおすすめ滝ハイキング＆ウォーキング

The trail disappears about a half-mile from the summit and you switch to following the arroyo and scrambling up some loose terrain to get to the top. It is good to bring the digital map with you as the GPS route is quite good. The peak sits at 8,753 feet, just shy of the height of Organ Needle, and the views are phenomenal in all directions.

Two small caves with a waterfall that is more or less visible depending on the season and that you can also climb.

This peak sees less traffic than the primary Sandia Peak to the north, so it's a nice opportunity for a getaway from the crowds. You'll still get stunning views from the top, though, along with a good sweat, as every route up involves quite a bit of elevation gain. The name of this peak (and the entire ridgeline it inhabits) means "watermelon" in Spanish; it refers to the lovely pinkish color these mountains take on when hit by low-angle sun.

This seasonal waterfall is at its best during spring, when the water flows most abundantly; otherwise, you might catch just a trickle. Nevertheless, it's a splendid sight, and the fact that it's less frequented makes it a tranquil spot to enjoy.

Iconic walk. Bring lots of water

What beautiful photos

😃👍

Doable as a single day up and down, but start early and pack a headlight.
