Top Places to Cut Your Own Christmas Tree Near Albuquerque
Nothing conjures up the holiday season like a fresh Christmas tree. Moreover, there’s nothing more authentic than finding a tree to take home for Christmas in a national forest. The Albuquerque area is rich in that regard, with three close by: Santa Fe, Cibola, and Carson. Expect to make a day of this tree-cutting adventure. You’ll need to dress warmly and in layers because it is cooler in the forest than in Albuquerque. Wear shoes that will hold up to trudging through the forest floor, like boots or hiking shoes. Additionally, pack a picnic lunch or snacks, plus some hot chocolate or coffee, and ensure your vehicle is one that can safely handle a bit of off-roading. Always make sure you know the terrain before venturing across it.
