What do you think?? 🤔 Tips to Visit ⬇️
•
True Story - this National Park surprised us so much that after a quick visit, we immediately extended our stay and returned the following day! 
•
Have you been to, or heard of…
•
📍 Carlsbad Caverns National Park, New Mexico 
•
Why is it a perfect Fall and WINTER destination?? 

1️⃣ Shockingly, once you enter the massive caverns, the area stays the same temperature in all seasons!
•
2️⃣ Beat the crazy summer crowds. Reservations are now Required to Enter the Caverns, so it’s ideal to enjoy during a slower period! 
•
3️⃣ Pack 3 National Parks into 2-3 days! Nearby you’ll find: White Sands National Park, and less than an hour away, is Guadalupe Mountains National Park. Ps— White Sands is AMAZING in winter! 
•
📍 Nearest airport ✈️ - El Paso, Texas, and Albuquerque, New Mexico 
•
📍 Book time entry reservations online at NPS.org, or call 877-444-6777 
 •
♿️ The park also offers elevator service in and out of the cavern, where you can access the epic ‘Big Room Trail’. 
•
🐶: Dogs are not permitted, but the parks concessioner offers a $10/day kennel service 👏. 
•
📌 Always ALWAYS Leave No Trace and take special care of these natural wonders 🙏 . On your visit, stay on the designated paths—you would’t want to get lost off-trail, 1,000+ feet below ground!
•
Note: Caverns close for maintenance from time to time, check NPS.org and plan accordingly 👌.
