    Beautiful place with a beautiful view! I do recommend to stop there even for a second if you have the time! There are vendors in the parking lot selling beautiful artwork/jewelry as well as a non temporary suicide awareness bus.

    Great views from the lookout points along the bridge. It's about 1/4 mile walk from the unimproved parking area where there's an historical marker. Interestingly, there are Crisis Helpline call boxes at the lookout points. Sadly, jumping from the bridge must be common.

    I only got to stop briefly at the Gorge before nightfall, but the view is spectacular. I loved the easy walking trail that allows access to more of the canyon than a view from the bridge. Wish I had spent more time there!

    Well worth the drive for this amazing beauty. The views are insane and only made better by the picturesque New Mexico sky. Park at the rest stop and walk across for unparalleled photo ops.

    Magnificent views from the bridge! If you are afraid of heights, beware! The railings are not too high and your legs will start shaking 🫨 There is a parking area where you can take photos of the bridge which you cannot do when walking on it. Don't miss it! It is worth the drive.

    It's absolutely gorgeous... naturally. Unfortunately there are several areas of graffiti and those along with the failing metal and barbed wire fencing really distract from the beauty. There are bathrooms and picnic tables to utilize though.

    Venturing from Austin, Texas to Taos, we made sure not to miss the awe-inspiring bridge with breathtaking views of the Rio Grande River. The drive was absolutely worth it, offering a tranquil escape with the added joy of watching people stroll along both sides of the bridge.

    Definitely worth going out of your way to see it. The heights are dizzying. Walking around the approach and bridge requires skill and caution as the grounds are rocky and uneven and you have zero distance between vehicles and you.

    There is a rest area right before the bridge, you can park there and have the best pictures. You can also walk down to the bridge, but I didn’t walk since it was so cold.
