Abo Pass Trail
New Mexico Scenic & Historic Byway 37 mi in New Mexico.
About the Abo Pass Trail
The trail connects the remnants of Abo Pueblo on its eastern end to the city of Belen on the west and El Camino Real Scenic Byway to the Salt Missions Scenic Byway . Throughout history, this trail has been a key east/west connection for trade – today by train and in its ancient beginnings, by foot. Ancient Pueblo life, Spanish exploration, and frontier trade have all helped shape this ancient path.

About this page's facts
The line is the Federal Highway Administration's scenic byways layer (HEPGIS, a snapshot of 2022-06-24, a US government work), cut at the state line and simplified for the map; the length is the line's. The designation is the program's own: the national tiers from FHWA's America's Byways roster, the rest from the layer's designation field. Road conditions, closures and seasonal gates change: check the agency's own page and the state's road conditions before you go.
