Our Location

We are located an easy drive from the Town of Taos, which sits at the base of the mountains. It takes about 30 minutes to drive from Taos Plaza to the Ski Valley, passing through historic villages and mountain canyons. The area’s early ski pioneers, residents, and employees blended their love of skiing with the local Native American and Spanish cultures to craft a mountain retreat out of an old mining town. Over the years, Taos has become world-renowned for steep runs of powdery, dry snow in the winter and stunning forest surroundings in the spring and summer.

With unprecedented access courtesy of JSX, visitors from Texas and California can fly directly to the Taos airport, instead of flying into Santa Fe or Albuquerque.

Follow along as we head up NM-150 from the base of the mountains just north of Taos up to the Village of Taos Ski Valley.

Labor of Burger Love 🍔🫦💋❤️‍🔥 Labor Day Weekend is once again upon us and eponymous burgers are having a moment… so we’re taking one to pre-game for #TastyTuesday! So what takes what’s between a bun from mundane to magnificent? It’s no surprise that @velvet_cactuss knows precisely what he wants in a burger, and it’s got to start with the meat. “To me the quality of the beef makes for a good burger! And it must be grilled to the perfect medium rare. A good burger is also well seasoned and accompanied by crispy French fries for texture.” So are you in or are you out this weekend!? @Taos has plenty of patties worth heading out for. Here’s our lineup, with a few more ideas in Story👆to whet your whistle: 🎯Classic with a Twist @aceqrestaurant — No need to wait for the weekend when ACEQ Burger Thursdays can set the tone early. Each week they’re rolling something special to keep us on our toes and wanting more! Check out their Labor Day Weekend Cookout with @taosmesabrewingco too on Saturday, August 30 for a change-of-taste that’s all about the 🌽 🦐 boil! 🔥The Straight Shooter @juliette.hotelwilla — if you’re feeling a little fancy, the Juliette Burger is all about quality over quantity as with everything on their menu. Their namesake burger takes KISS to a whole new level, hitting just right with New Mexico green chile, white cheddar, and caramelized onion— no fuss, just the magical union of three quality ingredients. 🥊 The Heavy Hitter @daleeektaos — Weekend loading… Go big or go home with the DALEEE Burger! Here its as much about the toppings as it is the a juicy 6oz patty. We’re all in for melty mild cheddar, lettuce, tomato, and onions. Up the ante by adding guacamole or bacon. Eat well, celebrate big, and let the meat do the talking this Labor Day! #TaosEats #LaborDayWeekend #BurgerRoundup #ClassicWithATwist #GreenChileEverything #FoodieTaos #EatLocalTaos #BurgerLovers #TaosFoodScene #TasteTaos #NewMexicoEats #LaborDayFeast

Golden opportunity 🪂🤩✨🥾⛰️CARSON NATIONAL FOREST: A REMINDER Challenge accepted! The Carson National Forest temporarily closes the Wheeler Peak and Williams Lake area beginning today August 21 through next Thursday the 28th for Taos Pueblo traditional purposes. Kachina Basin activities @skitaos and The Bavarian will be operational during this time, and there are still plenty of trails to blaze - maybe try a 🆕 one! Here are three of our favorite recommendations… can you correctly 🆔 them? 1. Not burying the lede on this one! See headline for the hint.🥇

Ever wondered what it’s like to ride the Taos Bike Park? Why not take it for a spin? … and POV with us first! 🔁🚵‍♂️💨 DYK you don’t have to be an experienced downhiller to try it? Here are some things we learned by doing: - We were happy on our trail bike on the blues, but downhill bikes are available for rent — they’re heavier with more suspension travel for soaking up big drops and rough terrain, while trail bikes are lighter, more versatile.
- If it’s your first time, let the lifties know you might need a lift getting your bike on the rack.
- Renting a full face helmet isn’t required nor is other PPE but it’s nice peace of mind to have on your personage!
- If you have a Winter 25-26 pass, it’s included — no reason not to!! Day passes also available…
- Go early during monsoons to get your laps in before afternoon showers. That said, both times we went we started around noon and breezed straight through close with no weather challenges! Give it a go! We did and had a lot of fun. Plus The Bav is has your back for breaks and après… just like ski season! 😉 #TaosSkiValley #RideTaos #Taos #POV #DownhillMountainBiking #MountainBikeLife #BikePark #TaosBikePark #MTBNewMexico #GoPro #RideMore #BikeSeason #FlowTrail #SingletrackLife #MTBCommunity #TrailTuesday #RockyMountainRiding #SummerInTaos #VisitTaos #ExploreNewMexico #NMTrue #WildlifeOnTheTrail #TrailChipmunks #CrittersOnTheTrail #NatureOnTheTrails #MountainWildlife #MTBadventures #MTBvideo #TrailLife #OutdoorPlayground
