This live camera looks out over Albuquerque, the largest city in New Mexico, from an elevated mountain position. It is a practical way to check how the city and the surrounding high desert look right now. The page also gives you local time and the current weather for the area.

About Albuquerque and its setting

Albuquerque sits along the Rio Grande in central New Mexico, at roughly 1,700 metres above sea level. The city is known for its wide high desert basins, the Sandia Mountains rising to the east, and a strong Hispanic and Native American cultural heritage. The Old Town district and the long history of the Rio Grande valley are among the things many visitors come to see.

What to watch on the camera

Depending on the view, you may see the city grid, the river corridor and the mountain edge stretching toward the horizon. Clear, dry air often gives sharp views, while summer afternoons can bring towering clouds and sudden storms. Early morning and the hour before sunset are often the most rewarding times to watch, when light falls low across the mesas.

Climate and getting there

Albuquerque has a sunny, semi-arid climate with hot summers, mild autumns and cool winters. Spring is usually dry and windy, and the best months for visiting are typically May, September and October. Nearby cameras in Belen, Santa Fe and Los Alamos show other parts of the region, which is useful if you plan to travel around New Mexico.
