Directions

When you arrive at the Laguna Burger Pit Stop gas station near 12 Paramotor Drive NW, Albuquerque, NM 87114, pull into the station and head north behind it. You’ll see a red sign that says “Now Entering Laguna Pueblo.” Don’t worry, you are still within Albuquerque city limits at this point. The actual Laguna Pueblo boundary is still about 4 miles farther north, so you are fine to continue. Continue north past the sign and over the cattle guard for approximately 1.5 miles, then make your first left turn into the camping area. Expect rustic desert roads, open space, quiet surroundings, and classic Southwest desert views. Accessible for RVs, camper vans, overlanders, and tent campers in normal dry conditions.
