OUR TOWN

Located in the Southern end of the San Luis Valley (Conejos County), La Jara is a quite laid-back community that is a perfect place to escape big city life. Situated midway between Alamosa and the New Mexico State line, we have a vast backyard that hosts everything from fishing, hunting, camping and other outdoor activities. Our surrounding rivers (Conejos and Rio Grande) make La Jara an excellent place to reside if you enjoy the great outdoors. We are located approximately 30 miles from the Great Sand Dunes National Park. The pace of life in our community means there is more time for family and unlimited adventures in the San Juan Mountains. The community is served by North Conejos School District and provides students with a great educational experience. La Jara is the perfect place to call home.
