WHAT WE OFFER
|
HISTORYThe land at Valmora (“Valley of the Mora") is vast. The property sits in a 900 acre canyon as part of the surrounding 45,000 acre Watrous Valley Ranch. There are sweeping views of the southernmost tip of the Rocky Mountains, meandering riverbeds, steep rocky cliffs, and 45 miles of rolling cattleland. Pinon pine, ponderosa pine, and black willow provide shelter for herds of elk, antelope, mule deer, and migrating birds.
Nestled where rivers, mesas, mountains, and desert lands converge in Northern New Mexico, Valmora is unique in its abundance of natural resources and rich history. It was originally built as a sanatorium for tuberculosis rehabilitation in 1904. And served as a center for health and healing until 1973, then as a school from 1995 to 2009. Since then, the 80,000 square feet of mostly historic buildings sat untouched until the fall of 2017 when they were purchased as the future home of Valmora Retreat. It is our intent to preserve the history and beauty of this land as we bring it into a new era of transformation. |
