Located in the high desert at the base of the Sacramento Mountains, Alamogordo is the perfect location to “set up camp” to enjoy all the incredible attractions the area has to offer. Only 15 minutes from Alamogordo, one of the world's great natural wonders rises from the desert, White Sands National Monument.
