Valley of Fires Recreation Area, managed by the Bureau of Land Management in New Mexico, offers a unique experience for visitors to explore the aftermath of the Little Black Peak eruption that created a vast lava flow over 5,000 years ago. Covering 125 square miles, this young lava flow provides a striking contrast between barren rock and a diverse array of desert flora and fauna along its nature trails.
From camping and hiking to wildlife viewing and birdwatching, Valley of Fires presents a range of activities for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy amidst the rugged beauty of the Chihuahuan desert landscape. With its proximity to Carrizozo and various OHV areas, this recreation area is a must-visit destination for those seeking an immersive outdoor adventure in New Mexico.
