Getting to Guadalupe Mountains
By Car
Guadalupe Mountains National Park’s Pine Springs area is where most visitors head. There are no towns of any size near this area. Most visitors come from the east on US-62/US-180 from Carlsbad Caverns National Park, and the city of Carlsbad, New Mexico beyond.
Below you will find an interactive map showing the location of the Pine Springs area of Guadalupe Mountains. You can click on the map marker to get directions from wherever you are. Following this is the official park map provided by the National Park Service. You can view either the original PDF file (sometimes very large files) or a simple image file. The map links will open in a new tab. Note that while this map is useful for general navigation around the park, if you are planning to do any hiking, you should really have a proper Guadalupe Mountains Trail Map.
