About Vietnam Veterans Memorial State Park

A memorial building near US Highway 64 honors those who served in the Vietnam War, forming the core of the site. Originally opened under state park management, the grounds were later transferred to New Mexico's Department of Veteran Services, which now oversees them. The site sits close to Angel Fire and was set aside for this purpose in 1971.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
