Southwest New Mexico - Wink Travel Guide
Southwestern New Mexico is the state's most diverse region, though not its most populous.
It includes Las Cruces, second largest metropolitan area in the state; the Gila Wilderness, a vast roadless area popular with hikers; and a great deal of desolate territory near the border with Mexico.
Both the Gila Wilderness near Silver City and Organ Mountains near Las Cruces are great places for hiking and backpacking. Another excellent hiking place in this region is City of Rocks State Park, off NM 61 south of Silver City, where you can hike through rock formations similar to those of the better-known (and more extensive) Chiricahua National Monument in Arizona.
Wink Travel Guides introduce you to the best world travel destinations, in a clear and concise way, illustrated by photos.
