Down in the Bosque in Albuquerque, New Mexico

Last updated on April 14th, 2024

The Rio Grande wanders through Albuquerque and the cottonwood forest along its bank is known as the Bosque. It’s mostly a natural area, but restoration is on-going and (along with non-native invasive plants) there are still remnants of the metal flood fence that was supposed to protect adjacent property from flood-born debris. (Apparently this is no longer needed and is being removed.) A bike trail runs along here, but it is also a pleasant place simply to wander on a sunny afternoon.
