Area Attractions



Truth or ConsequencesTruth or Consequences, once known as Hot Springs, is best-known for its geothermal mineral waters, but is also a popular destination for "snowbirds" due to our extremely mild winters. For urbanites, our slower pace provides a welcome respite from bustling big-city environments.

The hot days of July are tempered by cooling nights. If you are here in autumn or spring, you may think you've found a little piece of paradise. And if you think the stars come out in Hollywood, you should see the heavens here at night! Elephant Butte Lake adventurer

Our neighboring community, the City of Elephant Butte, is home to the largest body of water in the state,(offsite link) and can swell in population to 100,000 on holiday weekends during the summer.

Some prefer the quieter Caballo Reservoir, with its majestic backdrop (the Caballo Mountains) and two state parks nearby (both are prime birdwatching spots).

Numerous other diversions are available for visitors - museums, galleries, golf courses, ghost towns, the nearby Gila Wilderness, and more.

We've included many of these assets on this site's "City A-Z" page, but additional information on what to do in the area can be found on the Sierra County Tourism website,(offsite link) particularly in the Visitor Information section gorgeous day in T or Cunder "about the area" and "things to do."

There, you'll find information on all of the area's highlights and attractions; on lodging (including RV Parks) and restaurants, and on special events - both annual and monthly.

The Day Trips publication is also available in pdf form on the Tourism website. Many adventures await those who are willing to venture outside our city limits!
