    Road cycling

    Dark Canyon Road is a partially paved, partially gravel road that runs east-west, north of Carlsbad Caverns National Park. Dark Canyon Road connects U.S. 62/180 to the Guadalupe Backcountry Byway and is a fantastic, remote stretch of riding. Be aware, that although it's nice to be away from traffic, this road is a bit out there so have all the equipment you might need to solve a mechanical and bring plenty of water! This desert road is very exposed to the sun and heat so plenty of hydration, sun protection, and an early start is a must.
