Katherine Watson, executive director, writes that “…the only really accessible trail in Los Alamos is the paved Canyon Rim Trail. ” Clifton Russell also mentioned this trail: “In Los Alamos County, but not on the Forest, there is a very nice paved trail as you go into Los Alamos called the Canyon Rim trail. It is about 2 miles long and goes along the south side of the highway by the Airport. Lovely views over the canyon, wide, mostly level. A visitor would see the signs by the airport runway as they drive into town.”
