ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.—The Bureau of Land Management and the Pueblo de Cochiti have announced hours changes for the Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument in an effort to better manage the resources of the monument, protect its fragile formations, and ease staffing shortages. Entry into the monument will be from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with the monument closing to visitors at 5 p.m.
During the summer months, the monument experiences increased visitation. Please be aware that visitors may experience entrance delays starting at 9 a.m., due to lack of available parking. Wait times may range from 30 to 90 minutes. As parking is made available, new visitors will be allowed to enter.
For more information, please contact the monument’s Outdoor Recreation Planner, Jamie Garcia, at 505-761-8787.
