Start (or end) your adventure on the ancient Zuni-Acoma Trail across the lava flows of El Malpais National Monument from here. This trailhead features a pit toilet and picnic area.

If venturing out on the trail, be prepared with plenty of food and water. The trail is marked by cairns--piles of rock--so be sure to have the next cairn in sight before continuing onward.
