White Sands National Park, located in the Tularosa Basin of southern New Mexico, is renowned for its vast, pristine gypsum sand dunes, the largest of their kind in the world. Formed through complex eolian processes, these dazzling white dunes are part of the Chihuahuan Desert and support a unique ecosystem with endemic species such as the soaptree yucca. The park’s stunning geomorphology, including salt deposits and shifting sand formations, draws scientists and visitors alike. Home to a variety of wildlife, including golden eagles and insects adapted to the harsh desert environment, White Sands offers opportunities for hiking, picnicking, and stargazing under the clear desert skies. Managed by the National Park Service, it is a remarkable example of desert beauty and ecological diversity.
