From the town of Pecos, NM, take New Mexico 63 north. Right before you would cross the river, there is a sign pointing to the Holy Ghost campground. Take this road, and almost immediately, there is a turn-off to the right which leads to the campground. Across the river is the Terrero General Store which offers showers for $5.00. Note that the road from Pecos is narrow and it has many sharp turns. Expect to take at least half an hour to get from Pecos to the campground. | ![]() |

It was nice when the cave wasn't gated. You could explore for hours.
On Mon Feb 2 14:52:27 2009 Sarah from Rio Rancho, NM said:We love the spot right after the 2nd bridge. Great access to the water. We watched several idiots on ATV's (no helmets) flip over a tough spot even for cars to go up. We went in Aug 08 and it was beautiful during the day, then the rain clouds would roll thru. It did hail like crazy for about 2 hours straight, then it was so cold. The people around where very nice. Alot of people give good fishing tips! The rangers where very friendly. We will be back there again this year! On Sat Jun 30 22:34:18 2012 Anonymous from Somewhere said:
This campground description says "Albuquerque's west side" BUT the campground is actually just East of Santa Fe. On Mon Jul 2 08:28:07 2012 The Webmaster from Albuquerque, NM said:
Thanks for pointing out the error. I have fixed it.
