A Dazzling, White Desert Like No Other

Spanning nearly 275 square miles, White Sands is home to a surreal landscape of rolling white dunes, with 230 square miles open for exploration. It's a playground for hiking, sledding, stargazing, and more.
Established in 1933 as a national monument and re-designated a national park in 2019, White Sands is open daily, year-round (closed only on December 25).
Park hours vary seasonally, and missile tests or weather may cause temporary closures. Always check the official website before visiting.
