This spot is so nice and there's so many trails. Love it down close to the water. Always peaceful and full of wonder"

Those sculptures are pretty!! We had a family picnic with friends by the riverside. We had to walk there about 15 minutes to get to the riverside from the sculpture area. It's worth it. We had a great time 😊"

Plenty of side trails for a more solitary walk or stay on the east levee for an easy jaunt. Biggest complaint is there are absolutely ZERO trashcans along the main trail so nobody cleans up after their dog. If CABQ would put out some receptacles more folks would clean up after their dogs. Hard to believe but walking three miles with a couple of warm bags of poop in your hand detracts from the whole nature immersion vibe."
