Valles Caldera National Preserve has closed the backcountry vehicle route early this year due to the recent snowstorm and the forecast for additional snow over the next few days. Normally, the route remains open through November 15. The vehicle route is slated to open again on May 15, 2025, weather-permitting.
Visitors to the park can still enjoy exploring the front-country of the park, driving as far as the Cabin District on the north side of Valle Grande. In addition, visitors can explore beyond the Cabin District on foot or bike.
