  • I mostly went here to see Kit Carsen's gravesite in the cemetery at the rear of the park. It is a bit of a walk from the road and nothing special to see but something I wanted to do.

  • Fun venue, highly recommend. Relatively small capacity, but nice stage and sound system. Well-organized, and they were very conscientious when thunder storm rolled through and evacuated the field.

  • Nice park with a music venue, cemetery, field, paths, and play grounds. It does seem to have seen better days but it is still a lovely place to be or bring the family
  • Kit Carson Park is fairly large with a music venue, children's playground area with nice equipment, ball fields, walking trails, good rest room facilities and open spaces. It encircles a cemetery where Kit Carson, his family, many of the early settlers and adventurers who helped make Taos a thriving community, and military veterans You can enjoy a walk, a picnic or the shade of one of the numerous trees. Various festival type events are held here over the course of a year and it gets a lot of use.
