Luna County is New Mexico’s Outback— a high desert region known more for its epic rugged
desert mountains formed by ancient volcanic activity. The most famous mountains of the area are the Florida Mountains. These mountains are part of the Chihuahuan Desert and offers some of the most scenic and challenging hiking in southern New Mexico.

Luna County, New Mexico, offers a unique blend of qualities that make it an attractive place to live, work, and play, especially for those who appreciate small-town charm, natural beauty, and affordability.
