Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge

Score4.6

Wide Río Grande floodplain, salt flats, marsh channels and grasslands offering expansive landscapes and abundant migratory and resident birds. Ideal for sunrise/sunset color and dramatic skies with Sandia/Manzano ranges in the distance. Visit spring and fall for peak bird activity, summer for grasses and wildflowers, winter for raptor and crane sightings. Access is by car; use designated trailheads and parking areas, bring water, sun protection and check refuge rules/permits before entering.
