Inn on the Paseo

Getting out and enjoying the attractions of nature with the whole family is always fun, but it is even more enjoyable when you head out for your outdoor adventure to Santa Fe's Nambe Lake Falls. In addition to the amazing waterfalls, you can enjoy such fun activities as camping, fishing, rock climbing, and hiking. And if all those activities leave you more than a little hungry, there are plenty of excellent spots where the whole family can enjoy a picnic together before venturing out again.

Shidoni Arts creates art while being a work of art in and of itself. This stunning sculpture gallery is worth the ten-minute drive north on Bishop's Lodge Road to Tesuque Valley where the Shidoni Gallery is located. The expertly manicured grounds of the gallery are something truly amazing to behold, and you can stroll around to take in the amazing sculptures displayed there that lead to a calming, babbling brook. Depending on the time of your visit, you can actually see sculptures being poured in the working foundry.
