Carlsbad sits on the Pecos River in southeastern New Mexico, at the western edge of the Permian Basin, and the region’s drilling boom has made Eddy County one of the most productive oil and gas areas in the country. Energy companies, oilfield service firms, pipeline operators and their crews keep local hotels full. Potash mining has been part of the economy since the 1930s, and the Department of Energy’s Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, a deep underground repository east of town, adds a significant federal and contractor presence.
Carlsbad is a long way from major airports: about two and a half hours by car from El Paso or Midland and more than four from Albuquerque. Flying private into Cavern City Air Terminal, a few minutes from town, makes it possible to visit well sites, offices and field operations and fly home the same day. Visitors come for Carlsbad Caverns, about 20 miles southwest, where an elevator or the natural entrance trail descends into enormous decorated chambers, and for Guadalupe Mountains National Park just across the Texas line. The Pecos River winds through town with a beach and riverwalk.

Things to do in Carlsbad
When to go. Carlsbad Caverns stays a constant cool temperature underground, so the caves can be visited any time of year. The bat flights at the natural entrance take place in the evenings from late spring into October, and fall brings comfortable weather and autumn color in McKittrick Canyon. Summers are hot, spring is often windy, and winters are mild and sunny, with Christmas on the Pecos lighting up the river through December.
- 01
Carlsbad Caverns National Park
The Big Room, one of the largest cave chambers in North America, is filled with stalactites and stalagmites, and summer evening programs watch bats spiral out of the natural entrance.
- 02
Guadalupe Mountains National Park
Just across the Texas line, the park protects Guadalupe Peak, the highest point in Texas, and McKittrick Canyon, known for its autumn color.
- 03
Living Desert Zoo and Gardens State Park
On a hill above town, this park showcases Chihuahuan Desert plants and animals, including Mexican gray wolves, bison, javelinas and birds of prey.

Pecos River Riverwalk
Carlsbad’s riverfront offers a sandy beach, walking paths and paddling on a dammed stretch of the Pecos, with pedal boats and kayaks in summer.
- 05
