We hiked the matrimonial and camposanto/box canyon trails and topped off our first day with the Sunset Trail Ride through gorgeous Georgia O'Keefe landscapes. The next morning, I took the Georgia O'Keefe walk with a very knowledgeable guide, Karen. Do not miss this walk! She was amazing. We carefully walked in the arroyos to the spots where Georgia stood to paint. Karen had books of Georgia's paintings for us to see what she saw. We learned about the wild life, the trees and plants. The scenery is spectacular. It is no wonder Georgia loved this place. There are two, small, fascinating museums. It is the best paleontology site for Triasic dinosaur bones in the world. The geology of the area is 200+ million years old. We were here during COVID, but still found so many things to do. The accommodations are rustic, but my bed was very comfortable. The meals are cafeteria style and for the price, are good. It was fun to eat with the friendly staff. The Abiquiu Inn is close by if you are looking for a restaurant!

This is a lovely way to get in touch with those who were here first. The trail is easy to follow and the signposts along the way give you a sense of what life was like there in when natives lived, worked and gathered there. From the top of the trail, you look across at Plaza Blanca and the Chama River Valley. Gorgeous.

This is the very first time we are seeing a Lavender Farm and we were blown over. We were travelling from Santa Fe to Taos and made a detour to visit this place. We were there in Aug and the whole area was bloomed. We loved the smell and enjoy the scenery very much. We tried their Tea House and had their Lavender cake and drink too. It was a nice experience for a first timer and glad we made it.
