Jemez Springs

New Mexico

If you’re ready to trade traffic lights for open roads and cooler air, Jemez Springs is just 60 miles north of Albuquerque and makes it easy to do just that.  Head into the mountains and you’ll find a place where you can spend the morning fishing at Fenton Lake State Park, take a soak in natural hot springs by afternoon, and still have time to hike through forest trails before sunset.

Campgrounds are scattered throughout the area, giving you the option to stay a night, or a few, and take it all in at your own pace.  With elevations climbing past 8,000 feet, the air feels different up here, the views stretch farther, and the pace naturally slows down.  Add in historic sites like Jemez Historic Site, and you’ve got a destination that offers more than just a quick stop, it gives you a reason to come back.
