The Land of Enchantment is known for many things, but its outdoor attractions are what make it one of the best states to visit. With desert and mountains, rivers and forests, the state’s incredible landscapes are jaw-dropping, to say the least. To make visiting even more enticing, a mountain coaster is coming soon to New Mexico, so you better be ready! It will give you a thrill you can’t get anywhere else in the state.

Located in Alto is the Ruidoso Mountain Park. While it's a haven for skiers come winter, it offers plenty of additional outdoor activities throughout the year.
