Grants is a small town in western New Mexico, United States. It is one of the stops along the historic Route 66 highway west of Albuquerque, New Mexico's largest city.
The town of Grants in western New Mexico often disappears from standard guidebooks because its Wikipedia entry is a technical redirect rather than a narrative article. This quirk means that a simple web search for "Grants" can land you on Wikipedia’s housekeeping page instead of useful visitor information. Savvy travellers circumvent the snag by appending "New Mexico" or the zip code 87021 to their queries, or by consulting the state tourism portal, which lists Grants as a gateway to the nearby Zuni Mountains and the historic Route 66 corridor. Recognising the naming glitch saves time and directs you straight to the town’s accommodation listings, museum hours and local eateries.
Although Grants lacks the headline attractions of larger New Mexico cities, its position along Interstate 40 makes it a practical overnight stop when criss‑crossing the tri‑state region of New Mexico, Arizona and Texas. The town’s modest hotel stock offers competitive rates, and the nearby Grants Rail Trail provides a peaceful stretch for cyclists seeking a low‑traffic ride. Pair a night’s rest in Grants with a short drive to the stunning El Malpais National Monument, where lava fields and sandstone cliffs contrast sharply with the flat desert scenery surrounding the town. This approach lets you blend efficient road‑trip logistics with a splash of natural wonder.
Redirect to:GrantThis page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect: From an ambiguous term: This is a redirect from an ambiguous page name to a page or list that disambiguates it. These redirects are pointed to by links that should always be disambiguated. Therefore, this template should never appear on a page that has "(disambiguation)" in its title – in that case use {{R to disambiguation page}} instead. From the plural form: This is a redirect from a plural noun to its singular form. This redirect link is used for convenience; it is often preferable to add the plural directly after the link (for example, [[link]]s). However, do not replace these redirected links with a simpler link unless the page is updated for another reason (see WP:NOTBROKEN). Use this rcat to tag only mainspace redirects; when plural forms are found in other namespaces, use {{R from modification}} instead. When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
