Located along historic Route 66, Grants is a gateway town to the lava flows and cinder cones of El Malpais National Monument and the rugged trails of El Morro National Monument. Once a logging and uranium boomtown, it now welcomes travelers with local museums, Route 66 landmarks, and access to hiking, caving, and volcanic landscapes. The town also serves as a key resupply stop for Great Divide Mountain Bike Route riders and long-distance hikers, making it both a practical and scenic pause on the road through western New Mexico.
