2024 was the worst experience of Zozobra. 100 years was absolutely over packed, to say the very least.

This park must have been built with the idea of family in mind. There's something for everyone to do. On the other side, they have a dog 🐕 park. We enjoyed our time here in Santa Fe, New Mexico. So many things to see and do. This is our second time here, and we truly enjoyed the family-friendly...
