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...

My comments were directed towards the OP, who appears to have a Class C. You probably would have some trouble getting around Taos near the plaza with your rig. At best, you can pull into one of the RV parks or into the Walmart, unhook your toad, and tour in that way.
The plaza areas of cities in this part of the country are generally from the 1600s. That's their charm and the reason why roads are not expanded. But it does make driving more complicated for those with big rigs.

I have only driven through Taos with our rig (40ft + toad). So, I can't answer about parking. There are certainly roads and corners that would be tight.
We also haven't driven the high road in the Motorhome, but if taking the high road, you probably don't want to start on NM503. I think the road is old through the town there, but some of the other parts have been repaved. I can't think of any other areas that would be a problem even with out rig. It is not a wide highway, but I don't think it would be a problem.
Taos Pueblo might be a problem parking. I only remember a few small parking lots.
Chama is no problem.
