Trail Overview
Southern Circle is located on BLM land in Rio Rancho, New Mexico. This trail can give you access to some tribal land, so be careful not to take other routes. It is an easy off-road drive through the desert. The trail is easy and well-maintained dirt roads, some rocky roadsand loose rocks. You will also encounter some washed roads that you will have to drive with care. This route includes some great views of rock formations and breathtaking sunset views. Cell service is good, but you will find some areas that are spotty. I suggest this trail be taken with some company, as it is a desert area and remote.
Difficulty
This route varies in difficulty, with a few sections of rocks and dips requiring attention due to unmaintained roads when it rains. Overall, the main dirt road is well-maintained and has a clear surface.
