Nambé Falls

TIME : 2016/2/18 11:41:28

Two lovely 20-minute hikes, starting from the Ramada Area 5 miles off Hwy 503 lead to the biggest attraction on Nambé lands, Nambé Falls. The steep upper hike has a photogenic overlook of the falls, while the easier, lower hike along the river takes in ancient petroglyphs. The nearby Lake Nambé, created by the federal damming of the Rio Nambé in 1974, has been closed to visitors since its fish were killed by contaminated run-off following a 2011 forest fire.
