Educational Opportunities at Las Cienegas National Conservation Area

Located 60 miles southeast of Tucson, the Las Cienegas National Conservation Area is home to a rich diversity of vegetation and wildlife. Cienega Creek, with its perennial flow and riparian corridor, is the heart of the Las Cienegas. The historic Empire Ranch was one of the first large ranches in Southeastern Arizona. The area is managed by the Bureau of Land Management, Tucson Field Office.
