    My husband was rather skeptical when I suggested this. We’re rather in a period of drought and he was SURE there would be no water to see - HAH. There are the falls and once you get to the parking area, the walk in to the falls is short and easy. Only complaint - we’re still in a pandemic and this part of the state isn’t big on social distancing or masks. So while there are steps to go to the base of the falls and actually paddle around in the pond, the many people there with no masks meant we weren’t going to put ourselves at risk. Beautiful spot, cool geology, very happy we went there. See more..

    - Attractive falls, but....
    Waterfalls
    Jemez Falls is a wonderful oasis in the mountains high above the New Mexico desert. It does have a few caveats though. First of all, it's a very popular stop and you'll be weaving your way through many others on a weekend. Also, while the falls are beautiful, the trails really don't go to the best vantage points for viewing and photography. To get to those, you may have to do some sketchy bushwhacking. Still, pretty much an essential stop in the Jemez Mountains. See more..
