Robledo Mountains Wilderness Area

Robledo Mountains Wilderness Area encompasses nearly 18,400 acres of federally protected backcountry in New Mexico, managed by the Bureau of Land Management. This is primitive, roadless terrain where motorized and mechanized travel are prohibited—a genuine wilderness experience shaped by Leave No Trace principles and self-reliant travel.

The area offers hiking and backpacking for visitors seeking solitude and untracked exploration. Access is on foot only, and there are no maintained facilities or developed infrastructure within the boundaries. Seasonal snow and water availability will shape your planning; spring and fall tend to offer moderate conditions, while summer heat and winter cold both present challenges. Come prepared with maps, water knowledge, and the skills to navigate and camp in remote backcountry.
