Fodor's Expert Review Nambé Falls and Nambé Lake

There's a shady picnic area and a large fishing lake that's open April through October at this scenic and popular hiking area along the High Road, just east of Pojoaque. It's $15 per carload for a day pass, and an additional $3 to go fishing on the lake; additionally, kayaks are available to rent from $30 per hour. The waterfalls are about a 15-minute hike from the parking and picnic area along a rocky, clearly marked path. The water pours over a rock precipice—a loud and dramatic sight given the river's modest size.
