To do in Albuquerque, Las Cruces & Red River

Food and ‘loons in New Mexico

New Mexico is known for its famed festivals and world-known flavors. Thanks to its Native American and Hispanic influences, New Mexico is a hotbed for cultural centers, anticipated celebrations and amazing food.

Grab a piece of the giant enchilada at the Whole Enchilada Fiesta in Las Cruces, or try one of the many amazing restaurants in downtown Albuquerque. While you're in the Albuquerque area, attend the International Balloon Fiesta in October – where you’ll see nearly 800 hot air balloons overhead at the largest balloon festival in the world. Want to get off the ground yourself? Hop on the Sandia Peak Tramway for a view of the Sandia Mountains, or hit the ski lifts of the Red River Ski Area during another scenic New Mexico winter.

Whenever you’re in New Mexico, whether taking in the Southern New Mexico State Fair or hiking in the Carson National Forest near Red River, treat yourself to a night’s stay at a Best Western hotel. You'll need the rest.
