Take a few minutes and explore the many places and the many attractions, events, and recreational opportunities that are to be found in this area NORTH, WEST, and NORTHWEST of Las Cruces
We are going to follow the Rio Grande and the the El Camino Real / Jornada del Muerte NORTH from Las Cruces. We will pass through, and discuss, the very important agricultural Rio Grande Valley. You will find that the little Town of Hatch, NM which is the undisputed "Chile Capital of the World" is a place that has attractions and events which will bring you back for a visit many times during the year.
On the East side of the Rio Grande is our newest, and possible the most interesting attraction in all of New Mexico, Spaceport America.
