La
Ventana Trail
la
Ventana ("the window") is one of New Mexico's largest
natural arches and perhaps the most dramatic and easily accessible
attraction
of the Cebolla Wilderness. The trail winds to the arch for
about a half a mile round trip hike. Please wear sturdy shoes;
the
trail is steep and rocky.
National Conservation Area
The
Bureau of Land Management administers the El Malpais National
Conservation Area. The Congress established the NCA
in 1987 to protect and conserve nationally important natural and
cultural resources while allowing compatible uses.
Cebolla Wilderness
Wilderness
is a place that generally appears to have been affected by forces of
nature. The Cebolla Wilderness offers 60,000
acres
of outstanding opportunities for solitude and primitive
recreation. We invite you to experience this wild place.
Please
Leave
No Trace! This way only nature makes the changes.
