About Carnuel

Tucked right at the mouth of Tijeras Canyon just east of Albuquerque, Carnuel offers a quiet mountain setting with an easy commute into the city. Nestled in the Sandia foothills along historic Route 66, this small community is known for its rugged scenery, wide-open views, and deep land-grant roots. Residents enjoy the peaceful feel of canyon living alongside quick access to mountain trails and all the conveniences of the metro area just down the highway.
