Featured National Recreation Trails - Hosted by AmericanTrails.org 
Canyon Trail – Located in Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, this 2.2-mile interpretive trail offers school groups and visitors year-round the ability to study tracks in the shifting sands, evidence of kangaroo rats, box turtles, and a host of other wildlife that call the refuge home (designated 2008). Catwalk Trail — Located on the Glenwood Ranger District of the Gila National Forest, the trail follows the route of a water pipeline built in 1893 through the very narrow Whitewater Canyon. In the 1930s the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) built a trail consisting of a hanging walkway following the path of the old pipeline. The Forest Service rebuilt the trail in 1961, and in 1978 it was designated a National Recreation Trail. Chupadera Wilderness Trail – Traversing the Chupadera Wilderness Area of the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, this 9.5-mile backcountry trail is rich in wildlife and wildflowers, and takes hikers through a range of landscapes culminating in a 360-degree view of several mountain ranges (designated 2008). Dripping Springs Trail System, New Mexico — Hiking and biking trails in southern New Mexico along the Organ Mountains, managed by the Bureau of Land Management. See photos and details...
Tent Rocks Trail — The two-mile Tent Rocks Trail is managed by the Bureau of Land Management from the Albuquerque Field Office. Located in Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument, the trail is located 40 miles southwest of Santa Fe and 50 miles north of Albuquerque, New Mexico, with the most direct access from Interstate 25. The trail features a close view of these intriguing natural features.
