Cibola National Forest, New Mexico

America the beautiful, indeed! The Cibola National Forest is definitely one place not to be missed in the wilds of New Mexico. The forest is one massive combination of all the most beautiful natural glory in the southwest! Cibola packs one heck of a punch with over 1.6 million acres in just New Mexico alone. From upwards of 11,000 feet, you’ll experience spectacular views of the valley, mega fresh air, and some seriously diverse wildlife! Depending on what season your paths cross, Cibola offers loads of fishing opportunities, challenging hikes, mountain biking, and downhill skiing and snowboarding. With most campgrounds not more than an hour’s drive from Albuquerque, settle in for a spell at some more traditional sites, cabins, or lodges. But remember, it’s a desert. Bring good, sturdy boots and lots of water!
