place to revel in the great outdoors.

There are a variety of things to do in Albuquerque.

Don't miss the stunning views of the city from Sandia Peak Aerial Tramway, as it slowly climbs the 10,350 foot peak of the mountains that form Albuquerque's eastern border.

Prefer high heels to hiking boots? There are lots of indoor Albuquerque tourism opportunities as well. Albuquerque, the largest city in New Mexico, is packed with activities, cultural attractions and distinctive sightseeing opportunities.
