History & Sightseeing

Bandelier National Monument protects over 33,000 acres of rugged but beautiful canyon and mesa country as well as evidence of a human presence here going back over 11,000 years. Petroglyphs, dwellings carved into the soft rock cliffs, and standing masonry walls pay tribute to the early days of a culture that still survives in the surrounding communities.

Jemez Hot Springs offers four pools maintained at a comfortable 98-105 degrees. Each pool contains therapeutic mineral water from deep beneath the Valles Caldera National Preserve. Ancient sea water was trapped there long ago, infused with many minerals over eons of time, which is one of the reasons the water here in Jemez Springs is so special.
