The Easy Trail In New Mexico That Will Take You To The Top Of The World
The Land of Enchantment is home to countless peaks and valleys with incredible views. Unfortunately, to reach many vantage points you have to take a strenuous hike to get there. This trail, however, is as easy as it gets but still has incredible payoffs. At only half a mile long, you won’t be worn out when you reach the top of the world and take in the breathtaking views of the Sandia Mountains. In fact, you may even have energy for some cave exploring.
