Low Road or High Road to Taos? Chama?
From Santa Fe, which road to Taos? Which road is the Ranchos de Taos church on? I can only do one on my way to the Grand Canyon; would like the one with the best view. Any recommendations on a rout...

Oh, I don't think parking is a great problem in Taos. There's a free municipal parking lot just east of the plaza on Highway 64, called Kit Carson Road in town. It's about a block from the Taos plaza.
When visiting the plaza, don't forgot to walk to its north side, where there's a pedestrian zone.
Parking also shouldn't be a great problem when visiting the church down in Ranchos de Taos. Note that Ranchos is separate from Taos proper, located on its southwest side on either side of Hwy 68. The Ranchos plaza, where the church is, has plenty of place to park your rig.
If you take the high road, then you'll come into the Taos area on 518 from south. It intersects with Hwy 68 about a block east of the Ranchos plaza, so turn right to visit the Taos plaza area, or turn left to visit the Ranchos Plaza.
Taos Pueblo is located on the northeast side of Taos. Check your dates, though, because they sometimes close for cultural ceremonies.

There is a small Walmart (no SuperWalmart) in Taos, and it does permit overnighting by RVs.
