The excursion along the Enchanted Circle Scenic Route is an unmissable experience. Travelers must tour the highest mountain in New Mexico, Wheeler Peak. In addition, taking the trip allows them to pass through charming historic towns and enjoy magnificent views. By the way, those who want to stay along the scenic Enchanted Circle route can stop at the Red River to explore this charming town. Many outdoor activities are highlighted: hiking trails, a ski area, cycling paths, trout fishing, and visiting the fish hatchery. For those who just want to eat before continuing on the road, there are several restaurants in Red River.
Still, on the way to the Enchanted Circle, Questa is a small historic village that is interesting to see. The atmosphere is authentic, not to mention the various outdoor leisure opportunities, especially for hikers. Anyone who ventures further into Questa will discover a beautiful adobe church dating from the 19th century, considered a legendary site along the Enchanted Circle.
In a different setting, Taos is the largest town along the circuit. This is a place for lovers of art, culture, and the outdoors. They will find galleries and a good number of local museums. As for those who want to stretch their legs, hiking, cycling, skiing, golf and, why not, climbing are highly promoted activities in Taos. If some want to dip in a hot spring, they can also do so.
To continue discovering the Enchanted Circle, Angel Fire is an option that should not be missed. In addition to being home to a ski resort, this village offers outdoor activities all year round. Again, hiking is proposed, but there is also snowshoeing in the Carson National Forest or visiting the local galleries and shops. ◄
