The refuge offers two hiking trails open from sunrise to sunset. The Meadowlark Nature Trail is a short hike around our Visitor Center on a combination of concrete and crushed fines to see some of the refuge playa lakes and prairies. The Gallinas Nature Trail is a longer hike on a mowed dirt surface with rocky patches; this trail is not recommended in rain or if you are not of sure footing. If hikers are bringing a dog with, dogs must stay on leash at all times. We ask that all hikers stay on trails at all times, walking off trail is trespassing into a closed area.
