Things to do in Taos

Taos sits on a high plateau at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, and it has drawn artists and seekers for more than a century, from the painters of the Taos Society of Artists to D. H. Lawrence and Dennis Hopper. Taos Pueblo, inhabited for roughly a thousand years and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, lies just north of town. Today the economy revolves around tourism, the arts, outdoor recreation and Taos Ski Valley, along with second homes, small businesses and remote workers drawn by the scenery and the slower pace.

  1. 01

    Taos Pueblo

    The multistory adobe homes of Taos Pueblo have been lived in for centuries. Guided tours share the community’s history, though the pueblo closes to visitors for some ceremonies, so check ahead.

  2. 02

    Taos Ski Valley

    About 20 miles northeast of town, Taos Ski Valley is known for steep, challenging terrain off the Kachina Peak lift, a European-style base village and a renowned ski school.

  3. 03

    Rio Grande Gorge Bridge

    Northwest of town, the bridge spans a sheer basalt gorge hundreds of feet above the Rio Grande, with walkways for dizzying views and trails along the rim.

  4. 04

    San Francisco de Asís Mission Church

    In nearby Ranchos de Taos, the massive buttressed adobe walls of this 18th-century church were painted by Georgia O’Keeffe and photographed by Ansel Adams.

  5. 05

    Harwood Museum of Art

    Housed in a historic adobe complex near the plaza, the museum traces Taos art from the early colony to modern masters, including a gallery devoted to Agnes Martin.

  6. 06

    Earthship Biotecture Visitor Center

    West of the gorge, tours explore off-grid Earthship homes built from recycled materials such as tires and bottles, designed to heat, cool and water themselves.
