This stunning range, part of the Cibola National Forest, is renowned for its rugged peaks, dense pine forests, and vibrant fall foliage, making it a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Just a short drive from Albuquerque, the area provides easy access to hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and bird watching along miles of scenic trails, including the renowned Manzano Crest Trail.
