Celebration of our Mountains
Various (915) 542-1422
Celebration of Our Mountains is a month-long festival of events to encourage appreciation of the El Paso region’s environment. More than 30 hikes, field trips, driving tours, nature walks, bicycle rides and other activities are listed below. This year we’ve expanded the Celebration to offer outings all month long. Most events are free; some have costs listed for park entry fees, transportation or other nominal expenses.
These events have been planned and coordinated by a volunteer Celebration of Our Mountains Committee, which formed last year to carry on the work begun by the UTEP Department of Geological Sciences, which continues to sponsor many of the events. Other special support has been given by Texas State Parks and Wildlife, Texas A&M Master Naturalists Program, Ardovino’s Desert Crossing and El Paso Scene. Printing of this guide is sponsored by El Paso Scene, Print World and Sun Harvest Farms.
