Join us on our Tent Rocks hike!  Many of our intrepid and well-travelled clients have told us that Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks is indeed a marvel.  They often compare it to Cappadocia, Turkey, where you can also view remarkable rock formations. This National Monument is called “Tent Rocks” because of the tent- or tepee-like shapes of the rock formations. The Tent Rocks were created 6.8 million years ago by volcanic eruptions in the Jemez Mountains. The nearby Pueblo of Cochiti call the place Kasha-Katuwe, which means “White Cliffs” in the Keresan language.

 

Fun for adult and children, the hike takes you through a slot canyon that is quite narrow at times.  Climb around and over boulders as you take in the beauty of the land.  Tent Rocks is truly a magical hike.

 

Since May 2020, the trails at Tent Rocks have been closed to the public.  Please call us for updates.
