White Sands National Park preserves a major portion of one of the world's great natural wonders -
the glistening white sands of New Mexico.
From the visitor center at the entrance of the park, the Dunes Drive leads 8 miles into the dunes.
Four marked trails allow you to explore the dunes by foot. You can sled down the dunes on a saucer!
White Sand National Park was established in 2019; previously, it was known as White Sands National Monument.
Gram and Pops visited here in March 2007. Pops visited again in June 2024.
