TRAIL TIPS!
This hike is out and back with three separate spurs. Stop when you get to the fences and signs, as this hike borders on private property and the Sandia Pueblo. Also remember your voice travels far in these parts - folks on their patios might not want to hear your shouts of praise for the natural wonders.
A great hike for exploring various spurs in and around Juan Tabo Canyon. We liked the southwestern spur the best as it snakes around several huge cliff faces. But the rest of the hike has its charms too, including views up to the Rincon Ridge and down into Albuquerque.
