Capulin Volcano
National Monument
New Mexico
Visitor Center and Road to the Top
 |
The
Volcano Road, which leads to the rim, is approximately two miles long.
Trailers, towed vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians are prohibited because
the road is narrow and has no shoulders. The road is closed after park
hours. Snow, ice accumulation, and/or severe thunderstorms can also close
the Volcano Road. Current road conditions are available by calling
monument headquarters at 505- 278-2201. |
|
The
visitor center contains exhibits about geology, natural history and human
history of Capulin Volcano. A ten-minute video shown in the Visitor Center
auditorium details the story of Capulin's eruption and the surrounding
Raton-Clayton Volcanic Field. A short Nature Trail is adjacent to the
Visitor Center. |
