Centuries of history and scenic desert terrain welcome glampers to Albuquerque.
With views of the Sandia Mountains and Rio Grande River, Albuquerque is full of natural wonders that make for an epic glamping experience. The hot, dry summers draw most campers from May to September. Find a tiny home equipped with a private deck for late-night stargazing and a firepit to stay cozy during the perfect summer glamping escape. Then, pay a visit to Santa Fe National Forest, which boasts 1.5 million acres of wilderness just two hours from Albuquerque. There are plenty of hikes to conquer year-round, but the Aspen Vista Trail is a highlight in fall when the aspens change color. After exploring, settle down in an artsy Airstream vacation rental with mountain views and wifi access. To get a taste of Albuquerque's 12,000-year-old history, head to Pecos National Historic Park. View ancient ruins, a Civil War battleground, and catch sight of Glorieta Mesa. Leashed pets are allowed on trails, so bring the dog along and stay nearby in a pet-friendly treehouse with flush toilets and showers.
