We love the chicken enchiladas with ‘Christmas’ sauce. And I have to have a chile relleno.
Remember- no free chips and salsa in Taos.

Farmhouse Cafe and Bakery
1405 Paseo Del Pueblo NorteGreat breakfast place with lovely outdoor area.
Great variety of burgers and fried side options. Don’t be turned away because it looks like it may have been an old gas station or fast food place in the past.

Taos Pueblo
A visión into the past.
We absolutely love going to this area for a picnic in the shallow area where the little river meets the big one. A good place to cool off or fish. Amazing views of canyon wall to photograph or paint.

Great section of the river near Pilar. Rent tubes to float or hire a guide for a day of rafting. This section is very tame so pay attention to where the rental staff tell you to get out. Next section of the river has a more challenging section for guided trips only.

Neighbourhoods
This is a town inspired by a little bit of Texas and a little bit of Germany. Very walkable with little shops and places to eat and drink. Fun summer and winter mountain activities including horseback riding, four wheeling, ropes courses, fishing, skiing, etc. Snow tubing in the winter is fun too.

We have skied Angel Fire. They have a decent base area, playing music with food and beverage options. Great when the sun is out. Seating can be hard to come by. Good stalking skills or early arrivals necessary.

Taos is a little harder to get to and requires that you have a car.
This airport is within just a few miles of our home. Feels like a luxury private(ish) plane experience. Rental cars limited but friends have used Turo or Wheeler Peak car rentals.
