Trail Overview

From Capulin on the Raton Highway, head north. After the NPS entrance to the volcano, a dirt path will be on the right. At the beginning of the trail, there is a fork. Take the left, as the right is NPS. Farther ahead, there’s another fork, but difficult to identify due to the trail being overgrown; take a right here. Part of the trail is on private property, and accessibility may change. The rest of the trail is state-owned.
