We are only 7 miles from the first of many parking /access areas into the forest.

Sandia Peak and the Cibola National forest are a short, scenic drive from our casita. Lots of hiking trails from easy to more challenging. You can also drive to the top of the Crest for amazing views of the entire city and hike all along the ridge. Bring water and a jacket as it is much cooler higher up in the mountains.

You can find two entrances to the Cibola National Forest in Placitas. Three miles east of Placitas Village, highway 165 turns into a forest road, and you'll find another entrance off 165 several miles west of the village. The roads are very rough and not really maintained, so you need a good SUV and dry roads. The entrance to the west of the village has several hiking & mountain biking trails.

Where else can you hike through high desert and reach Canadian alpine forest?
