PAJARITO MOUNTAIN

A gem exists in northern New Mexico, where the sun shines 300 days a year. Pajarito Mountain has a base elevation of 9,200 feet above sea level, and top elevation of 10,400 feet. The resort is located on the eastern slopes of the Jemez Mountains near Los Alamos. Only a two-hour drive from Albuquerque and 45 minutes from Santa Fe.

With Rio Grande valley views, the breathtaking beauty of the Jemez Mountains and Los Alamos has been, and continues to be, molded by the forces of nature. The remnants of volcanic activity, the Jemez Mountains are home to some of the most spectacular hikes and bike rides in the state, including the Apsenola trail that leads you to the summit of Pajarito Mountain, with an elevation of 10,440 feet.
