From Carlsbad, drive up to Taos and across the gorge, then up through Chama, Pagosa Springs and into Durango. Beautiful trip. A day trip to Telluride is also a beautiful drive.
BTW, you can camp for up to two weeks with no charge in a National Forest (well, at least for now). After two weeks, you have to move to another one and wait at least 30 (?) days to return. On the drive home, I suggest you go East to I-25 and drive back through Raton, Amarillo, etc. to see the amazing terrain on that route. Have a great time.

Leaving tomorrow with my boys on our road trip from Austin TX to Durango, CO, very excited!
We will stop by Carlsbad Caverns before we head straight over. We will spend almost the entire week in that area.

Looks like everyone else has this covered but I'll throw in another rec for Mesa Verde. When my kids were that age we crawled around that place for a couple of days.
Sounds like a great trip, have fun. |

A little late now, but in addition to Mesa Verde, Chaco Canyon is very cool. Amazing ruins, great sky at night when camping.

Thanks pals!
No, is never too late, keep the suggestions coming, we are super flexible and can make any adjustment or changes on the fly.

We will be passing by Albuquerque later today on route from Carlsbad to Durango...
Any particular suggestions for things to do at Albuquerque if we have a couple of hours to spend there?

El Patio de Albuquerque restaurant, Harvard Dr SE, ~1.5 mi SE of the intersection of I-25 and I 40. Nothing fancy - just good local NM red/green sauce.

Thanks for the tip Otay pal, unfortunately we ate like there's no tomorrow during lunch at Dragon Chinese Buffet@Carlsbad, so we decided to skip dinner and drove on past Albuq. and straight to our cabin in Durango.
