Hike along the Rio Grande

 

This hike leaves from the old Daniels Ranch close to Rio Grande Village. One travels up the hillside in a series of switchbacks, then for about a mile you walk on a high mesa. Then the trail descends to the Rio Grande at a place where there is a natural hot spring. The total hike is 5.5 miles round trip with 1000 feet of elevation gain. The trail is extremely well maintained.

It is one of our top 5 hikes of all time.

The views are so beautiful they will fry your brain.
