Written Directions

Head east on US 64 from Taos to Angel Fire NM. When you get to Angel Fire, turn right on Route 434 (head south). Continue south and you'll pass near Black Lake on the right and end up at the end point in Mora, NM.

Scenery

Rivers, mountains, fields, just a beautiful ride. Taos Canyon has plenty of twisties but a fair amount of traffic.

Drive Enjoyment

I haven't ridden this in awhile and can't comment on the road condition. But as far as the turns go, it has a lot of twists and turns ... nothing too sharp, but enough to keep you focussed.

Tourism Opportunities

No amenities outside of Taos, Angel Fire or Mora.

Great ride. Speed limits are irritating, but scenery makes up for it. Good curves, and some wide open NM valley. Plenty of great photo ops.

Rode from Angel Fire to Mora back in October 2016. Road is in good shape. I really enjoyed the quiet road. If I remember around Guadalupita there was some tree clearing going on for what looked like possible road improvements.
