Moriarty

The landscape around Moriarty is a high, semi-arid expanse of the Estancia Valley, which has shaped both the town’s low-rise layout and its farming-and-ranching economy. East of Albuquerque on the Interstate 40 corridor, Moriarty developed along historic Route 66, whose former roadside alignment remains part of the town’s identity. Open rangeland and cultivated fields extend across the valley, while the Sandia Mountains rise west of the plains. Moriarty provides a useful starting point for tracing the old highway through central New Mexico and visiting the smaller communities of the Estancia Valley.
