Summertime in New Mexico Means Camping

Name the constellations from your sleeping bag under the stars. Forest Service campgrounds—including Lower Hondo, Cuchillo de Medio and Cuchilla welcome you along NM 150 just below the Village of Taos Ski Valley. In the Village, plop down at Twining campground at the Bull of the Woods trailhead. Most of these free sites can accomodate trailers and tents, and have vault toilets. Taos Ski Valley resort allows free RV parking in their lot—first come, first serve—year round. The SnowMansion hostel also offers camping in lovely Arroyo Seco, 8 miles from the Village or Taos Monte Bello RV Park, near the Gorge bridge.
