    A very enjoyable easy day hike just east of Las Cruces. Highlight is the box canyon and (occasional) waterfall at the end of the trail. Free parking - no fee, but it can get a bit crowded weekends.

    This is a nice, easy hike with lovely views. The trail is not well marked at the beginning but was easy to follow after that. There is an old rock house near the end. If you are lucky, and there...

    Fantastic and beautiful hike at Organ Mountains National Monument. Well marked trail, climbs gradually from the parking lot leading to a box canyon with a pretty little waterfall. Wonderful 3.2 mile trail. Loved our hike and highly recommend.

    This was a beautiful hiking area with multiple trails. We enjoyed spectacular views from the base of the Organ Mountains. It has free admission and no restrooms. Make sure you take a restroom break before you get there.
