A sweet little path abuts the sweet little canal, with lovely trees and seating areas, and seamless transition to Plaza window-shopping. Parking opportunities line the walk (at least where we were), some by the plaza, metered, but others farther off are free. Honestly, it was a delightful way to spend 4 miles and a leisurely Tuesday afternoon in Santa Fe. You should take a walk too!

Really wonderful park in heart of Santa Fe for young, old, 2 and 4 legged. Big playground area with…read moreplenty to climb and run around. Also a unique series of nicely landscaped trails with plenty of benches. Big grassy areas for picnic, and several tables as well. Well done! The parking lot was a bit hard to find. It's on a short narrow road - Callejon- off of Paseo de Peralta. It's a small road, easily missed. It's like an alley behind a big building, parallel to the railroad tracks. If you miss it, turn into Camino de la Familia (next turn onto another small road but more visible) - there is a paid lot there with access to the park. Both my dog and I enjoyed this park!

Some of the slides are literally gone, while others could not be used because the ground is too far from the bottoms. Some of the toddler area interactive objects are cute and fun, but altogether it seems like things have gone long forgotten here. Parking is one dollar an hour. All of the rope climbing stuff looks cool, but my kids are kind of young for that.

The walking paths are easy to follow, clearly marked, and offer beautiful views of the native flowers and plants that thrive in this environment.

It truly was such a lovely, peaceful atmosphere for a quick get away from Albuquerque on the 4th of July.

It's small and you will be done in an hour at absolute most if you go really slow and take your time. The garden itself is beautiful, but for how large it is and the time you'll spend here it's not worth it. It is neat to see plants native to New Mexico here. Staff was friendly, and the gift shop had some cute things in it. Only porter potty bathrooms here. Located right by the other museums, so its a cool stop if you are in the area but honestly I'd say skip it and just walk around the museum plaza area instead.

There is so much history that is within this park to include Native American dwelling and Spanish church remnants, and even an area where the Santa Fe trail passed by. The 2 kivas you can climb down inside are a bonus, fun and interesting. Not too far away is also Glorieta Pass, the site of a American Civil War skirmish which has a monument. There is plenty of easy parking here as well as an overflow area. Definitely worth the stop if you are passing by and no park entrance fee.

That hike definitely is not for the faint of heart and pushed my limits at the top (you are high and it seems scary) but it is one of my most memorable hikes all around for the scenery and unique experience. A must visit! For those who don't to do the ladder hike, you can still walk to the bottom of it and look up and get a good view. So there is something for all levels here. The scenery is gorgeous. It does get windy here sometimes (we had a lot of wind blasting us as we were climbing the ladders) so be careful and be prepared for that. The nature all around is beautiful. Additionally, there are some tables so you could bring a picnic. Staff in the visitor center is very friendly and has lots of great recommendations of what to do here or nearby. A must do! This was the highlight of my trip to this area and I can't recommend it enough :)
