New Mexico’s second State Park is set in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains amongst a forest of pines along Little Tesuque Creek. The park is a short drive from Santa Fe and offers excellent group facilities and campsites. There are beautiful hiking trails with spectacular views. You can enjoy Hyde Memorial State Park in the winter months too with snowshoeing, sledding and cross-country skiing.
The historic Hyde Park lodge was built in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps, along with the ski runs and tow rope building high above the lodge. The visitor center in front of the lodge is also a historic building that was used by the Boy Scouts, and contains related exhibits.
Park Elevation 8,300 – 9,400 ft
