Hiking and Fishing 

New Mexico emcompasses six of the world’s seven life zones. Diverse landscapes from rugged mountaintops, to grassy plains, to lowland desert offer beautiful scenery for all levels of hikers. Perhaps your adventures will take you to explore the surreal hoodoos, take a dip in a natural hot spring, or walk along the deep Rio Grande Gorge! The Pecos River near Santa Fe is a great fishing destination, well stocked with trout and freshwater salmon! Required fishing licenses are easily available, just ask our concierge for more information. Whatever level of climber you are, there is an exploration waiting for you! For more information visit the New Mexico Department of Tourism Activities & Outdoor Recreation www.newmexico.org or visit New Mexico Game and Fish. www.wildlife.state.nm.us
