“The longest aerial tramway in the US, this is a must see. Hike up la Luz trail (3.5hours) and ride the tram back down, or just drive up to the base and ride the tram to the crest and back down for amazing views of all of Albuquerque, atop the Sandia mountains. If your in town during ski season, take your skis and you can access the mountain from the tram too- super cool experience!”
