Caliente Attractions
The small town of Caliente, population just over 1000 souls, was founded around the turn of the 20th Century. The town owes its origins to the railroads, as it was a major division point for the steam engines. Fans of westerns will be keen to check out Caliente, as it was once one of Zane Grey's favorite writing locations.
