About Capulin

Capulin is a quiet, small community in northeastern New Mexico along Highways 64 and 87, sitting right by the base of Capulin Volcano. Daily life here is slow and peaceful beneath expansive high-plains skies. The town's main attraction is Capulin Volcano National Monument, where a winding drive to the crater rim offers incredible views stretching across four states. For anyone looking for wide-open space, dark night skies, and a calm rural setting, Capulin provides a simple and scenic home.
