The village of Ruidoso is now home to the first, and only, mountain roller coaster in the state of New Mexico. The “Screaming Eagle Roller Coaster” is just under a mile long and has a 360-degree helix with multiple dips.
Romance may not be the first word that comes to mind when thinking about New Mexico - but it should be. There are a lot of secret romantic spots whether it's hiking, exploring, or trying a new cuisine. It's also notoriously affordable which makes it hard to resist.
