RV Rentals in Albuquerque, NM

Before rushing off to explore the best of Burque, you might want to think about whether it's an RV-friendly city. You shouldn't have too much trouble driving your rig around Albuquerque. Traffic can be bumper to bumper, but it doesn't rank among the top 40 most congested cities in the country. There are also several RV parks and oversized parking lots near downtown where you can leave your camper for the day while you see the sights.

Albuquerque is known for its high-quality museums, and among them is the Albuquerque Museum. The museum aims to preserve Southwestern culture and features dozens of significant historical and cultural artifacts ranging from conquistador armor to paintings by Georgia O'Keeffe.

Campers searching for panoramic views of New Mexico should take a ride on Sandia Peak Tramway. The longest cable car track on the continent, the Sandia Peak Tramway takes visitors over 10,000 feet above sea level to Sandia Peak, providing sweeping vistas of Albuquerque and the surrounding mountains and forests.

If you'd prefer to get out of the city and experience the New Mexican countryside firsthand, swing by the Petroglyph National Monument. This park covers over 7,500 acres of Albuquerque's West Mesa, including several dormant volcanoes and hundreds of petroglyphs carved by Ancestral Puebloans centuries ago. Hike through Piedras Marcadas Canyon and discover over 400 petroglyphs on the 1.5-mile trail, or hike up Black Volcano and enjoy sublime views of the surrounding high desert.

Make your next Albuquerque RV rental one to remember by staying at one of the top campgrounds in the city. The Albuquerque Central KOA is among the best RV campsites in Albuquerque, providing full hookups with max amp electricity just 10 miles from downtown near the Sandia Mountains. There's no better place in The Duke City to camp with a canine, with four onsite dog parks where they can stretch their legs. Campers will find plenty to keep them entertained, with a mini-golf course, swimming pool, and a hot tub. Amenities around camp include showers, laundry facilities, and WiFi access.

Alternatively, camp along the historic Route 66 and park up at the American RV Resort. Situated 9 miles west of downtown, this RV park features pull-through sites with full hookups and 30/50 amp electricity. As a modern campground, the American RV resort provides several onsite activities, including a spa, a clubhouse, and classic campground games like horseshoes. It's also one of the best places to watch the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta every October. Amenities include laundry facilities, a dog park, a grocery store, and WiFi access.

Located a couple of miles further down Route 66 is another highly-rated campground, the Enchanted Trails RV Park. Originally a 1940s trading post, this campground now boasts over 100 pull-through sites with full hookups and 30/50 amp electricity. When you're not out exploring Albuquerque, spend your time in the billiard's room or by the pool. Pets are welcome, and amenities include restrooms, laundry facilities, and free WiFi.
