About Piñon Hills
The Piñon Hills are a small mountain range located in north-central New Mexico, just west of the town of Chama. This range is characterized by gently rolling hills and plateaus covered in piñon pine and juniper forests, with occasional steep-sided canyons and rock formations. The terrain is generally moderate, with few true high peaks, making the Piñon Hills a relatively accessible outdoor destination for hikers, campers, and wildlife enthusiasts.
