Tucked away in Albuquerque’s North Valley is a colorfully decorated and minuscule campground set inside a walled organic garden for total privacy. Mother Bosque Garden has a gorgeous urban setting close to the Rio Grande (The Big River), and the sites are surrounded by swathes of desert plants, flowers and fruit trees that bloom from spring through to fall. This is a clean and secure base with room for just a handful of tents (guests in vans, cars or trucks park and sleep in the parking area), with kids and dogs all warmly welcome. There are sunny corners supplied with tables and chairs in which to congregate over breakfast or a beer after hiking, plenty of shade if you want it and a cool porch to sit in. Facilities include a bathroom with a hot shower; towels, soap and shampoo are all provided. You have free use of a fully stocked kitchen, while there is a small fee for using the laundry room. The sites are also close to stores (five minutes’ drive), gas stations (10 minutes) and hiking areas – Rinconada Canyon Trail is 15 minutes away by car.

Local attractions

Combine history with a hike on the Rinconada Canyon Trail (15 minutes’ drive), where routes lead to petroglyphs carved by the Ancestral Pueblo People in Piedras Marcadas Canyon. Boca Negra Canyon (20 minutes) is another area rich in petroglyphs along tracks through the rugged volcanic landscapes. Further afield, trails lead to the bizarre rock formations at the Toadstool Hoodoos (an hour). Close by you can take truck tours to Snoopy Rock (90 minutes), go dune buggying at Moon Rocks (also 90 minutes) or shoot across the desert landscapes on the C-4 Dirtbike Track (50 minutes). Learn the backstory of the state’s indigenous wildlife among the animatronic dinosaur skeletons and interactive shows at New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science (10 minutes), or see great art showcased in Albuquerque Museum (also 10 minutes), where ever-changing exhibitions feature big-name artists like Frieda Kahlo in futuristic surroundings.
