Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.

Small camp site surrounded by a sea of sagebrush, where heaven meets earth. Set alongside a private walking path that leads to the top of the Rio Grande National Monument and the rim of the iconic Taos canyon. Enjoy expansive earthly and celestial views and epic sunsets and moonrises over the Sangre de Cristo mountain range. I am just getting set up with hipcamp and don’t have much to offer beyond a beautiful camping spot on private property, on the very best of the Taos Mesa. I am currently very busy finishing the construction of my home, and work out here almost daily. I sometimes have visitors and work exchange staying on the property, but you will have a private and separate area to park and camp. If you are interested in earthen building construction or off-grid-life, I am happy to talk with you about it if time allows. I request that guests conduct themselves in keeping with the peaceful stillness and quiet of this landscape. Please no loud music.

Such a beautiful place! Alia made sure that we were stocked up on fire wood and was very hospitable! Helped us find the campsite and pointed us in the direction of the gorge, a must see!

BEAUTIFUL location right by the rio grande gorge. Wonderful scenery. No amenities (as stated in the description) but there is a rest stop at the rio grande gorge visitor center if you’re desperate for a real toilet!!

This is such a magical spot! The sage brush smells lovely and the canyon nearby is stunning. Just a 10min walk from site.

Alia’s spot was as advertised. I loved sleeping amidst the sagebrush. She was very helpful and communicative. 100% recommend
