Great easy-moderate clean trail for hiking or MTB. Got started about 8am and it was a great hike with few people on the trail. Trail is marked well with signs, numbers and maps along each path break. There are some elevation changes although I would consider them small. Highly recommend!

Good spot to drop in. Up hill to the jump line but fun coming back down!

So much fun. 2 bike parks. Flowy trails. Well maintained. And the biking community is ace. Definitely a fun place to ride. I brought the dirt jumper, so any bike is good. All public and all free. If you live in the Albuquerque or Santa Fe area and love to ride or trail run get out here. You won't be disappointed.

I walked Ridge Top Loop with good views. Not strenuous and views were lovely. I recommend hiking shoes but not needed if physically condition. La Tierra website gives you directions on the different loops. Very dog friendly.

Really great hiking. Some routes are hard to find between the posted maps, so if this is your first time I'd suggest printing out the map and bringing it along. Wonderful views all around.
