    Hiking

    Lake Lucero may only be hiked with via park ranger-led tour. The tour costs $8 for adults, takes three hours, and includes a historical reenactment.

    Lake Lucero is within an area shared with the White Sands Missile Range and the entrance is blocked behind a guarded gate when tours are not active.

    More information on the Lake Lucero Tour is available from the National Park Service website here: nps.gov/whsa/planyourvisit/lake-lucero-tour.htm
