About The East Mountains And Albuquerque
The East Mountains offer both beauty and adventure! Located between Albuquerque and Santa Fe on the historic Turquoise Trail, this gorgeous area provides many opportunities for exploration, history, culture, and breathtaking landscapes. There's a reason they call New Mexico "The Land of Enchantment." Albuquerque, one of the oldest cities in the U.S., boasts a unique multicultural heritage of Native American, Hispanic and Anglo influences. Nowhere is the confluence of past and present more dramatic than here in Albuquerque, where the modern city skyline is set against a backdrop of the ancient Sandia Mountains and an endless, timeless blue sky. Albuquerque allows you to experience the authentic Southwest.
