Very good pizza. Closed on Mondays. Definitely call ahead to make sure they are making pizzas as they have intermittent closures.

We recommend doing your grocery shopping in Santa Fe or Taos, but if you're not tight on cash or you need to pick up something you forgot, Bode's will have you covered. They also have some pretty tasty breakfast burritos if you can make it there before they sell out!

About 20 minutes from Abiquiu in El Rito -- another family-owned restaurant. This spot is cash only and casual. Call ahead to make sure they're open.

Awesome, casual (walk up and order) authentic New Mexican tacos, burritos and more. Family owned. 30 minutes from Abiquiu in Español (not a bad place to stop if you're coming from Santa Fe). The chicken tacos are some of the best in the state, but we also recommend the bean, cheese & chile burrito with guacamole for vegetarians. Yum!

Just down the road from the yurt, Plaza Blanca now has a gate with a code entrance. All guests are now required to register on the Dar Al Islam website to receive the code to enter. Absolutely beautiful place to hike and explore.

Located a short 5 minute drive from the yurt is the Rio Chama recreation area, on County Road 162. The road runs right along the Rio Chama, with places to pull out, park, and access the river. Some areas even have picnic tables and benches. The road turns into a very rutty dirt road about 3-4 miles up though, and we recommend an AWD/4WD vehicle to access the upper area. Fishing and swimming are allowed, but please mind private property and do not trespass.

These hot springs are our favorite. They are approximately 1.5 hours into the Jemez Mountains, and require a 5 mile hike between January 1-Memorial Day weekend every year. The rest of the year, you can drive up less than 1 mile and park. The springs run directly out of the mountain.
