About
Luna Park Campground is a unique primitive camping area in the Cibola National Forest's Magdalena Ranger District, named for the unusual volcanic rock formations that create an otherworldly, lunar landscape. The campground offers three designated sites tucked among these striking geological features, though shade is limited throughout the area. This is a pack-it-in, pack-it-out destination with no potable water or restroom facilities. Each site includes a picnic table and fire ring. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no fee and no reservations. Access is via Forest Roads 139 and 225, approximately 8 miles northeast of Monticello in Socorro County. The area appeals to campers seeking solitude and geological interest rather than amenities. The volcanic formations and remote setting make it a worthwhile stop for those exploring the rugged terrain of southwestern New Mexico's high desert.
Directions
From Monticello, travel approximately 8 miles northeast via Forest Road 139 and Forest Road 225.
