Seen from anywhere in the city, the Sandia Mountains rise 10,300 plus feet over the city. The mountains make a beautiful backdrop for the city, providing breathtaking views especially during sunsets, when the mountains turn a rosy color as they reflect the light from the setting sun. There is a lot of mountain biking, hiking, skiing and just plain sight seeing to be had on this beautiful mountain.

There are many hiking trails along the bosque of the Rio Grande river. The river winds its way through the city with a lush cottonwood forest following it. You don't have to leave the city to get completely away from the city. Unfortunately, due to drought the river is really drying up.
