When I was searching for things to do in Santa Fe I stumbled upon this park. I was thinking to…read moremyself that it looked kind of boring, but it turned out to be a really cool place. Admission is only $3 per person. They give you a pamphlet/laminated book type thing and you follow the trail and read the information as you go. They did an excellent job of describing life at the pueblo and it made the trip super interesting. There is a lot of opportunity for great photos. Dogs are allowed throughout the park as long as they are leashed and picked-up after. They had a movie in the visitor center, which we watched after our walk, it was informative, but not necessary.

Atalaya Trail is a very serviceable and enjoyable trail.  It's just the right length for an…read moreafternoon (or morning) hike, and it offers just enough elevation gain that you won't be bored by the level of endeavor required.  That said, apart from the views you'll be rewarded with when you're here, there's not a whole lot else of interest to see during your visit. Tip: This is a popular destination for both hikers and cyclists; both of the aforementioned need to keep their eyes peeled for their opposite numbers; hikers especially need to exercise caution to avoid being hit by oblivious cyclists. I've been here several times recently, and very much enjoy myself each time.  I've found that the views (especially from the top) are very rewarding.  Because it's very easily accessible from all over the area, the trail can sometimes get very crowded; it's best to visit either in the early morning or at off-peak hours to optimize avoid the crowds. The trail winds through the Cruz Blanca neighborhood before rapidly ascending up the side of Atalaya Mountain; it eventually reaches a height of just over nine thousand feet.  While the final stretch is quite gravelly and steep, the views from the top are totally worth it!

Beautiful vista, but I'll need to return for a sunset and very carefully make my way down the steeper parts of a darkening trail.
