| partners | | On our second day in Santa Fe we headed back into Santa Fe National Forest and hiked the Borrego-Bear Wallow Loop. The trail head for this hike is on the northern boundary of Hyde Park. The trail head is marked. To make this hike a little more challenging we would add a section of the Winsor Trail that heads up to the Big Tesuque Trail then back track down the Winsor to the junction with the Chamisa trail then return via the Bear Wallow Trail. This would make the hike about 10 miles. Aspen trees were in pockets along the trail in a pine fir forest.
All trails are in excellent condition and signed. Mountain biking appears to be quite popular here. We saw about a dozen hikers/bikers along the trail. The forest is a mix of pine/fir/aspen trees. The aspen along this trail were in full color. Tesuque Creek was running with a light flow. Very scenic hike the whole way and for a 10 mile and almost 2000 feet |
