Welcome to the neighborhood!

The experiences that New Mexico offers to the UNM community are a core part of being a Lobo. Of seeking adventure. Experiences that bring us together and push us out of our comfort zone.

The Land of Enchantment has memories in store for everyone.

With thick pine forests giving way to breathtaking desert vistas, rolling sand dunes and ski-worthy snowdrifts, this is one of the country’s premier places for outdoor adventuring. Here, you can find thousands of miles of hiking trails, rugged mountain ranges, world-class winter sports, and some of the region’s most breathtaking natural and historic sites—all waiting to be explored.

If you’re seeking the metropolitan vibe, Albuquerque is the place to be. With the warmth of a small town—and notoriously friendly—the almosta-million-strong metro area is home to a vibrant mix of cultures and people. Walk along centuries-old streets lined with historic buildings, pop into a contemporary museum, eat some of the best blue corn enchiladas you’ve ever had, then catch a show fresh off Broadway, all without leaving the city.
