 Sandia
Peak Tramway
A trip on the world’s longest aerial
tramway transports you above deep canyons and breathtaking
terrain a distance of 2.7 miles. See some of nature’s more
dramatic beauty unfold before you. At sunset the desert skies
produce a spectacular array of color, and your vantage point
from the observation deck atop 10,378 foot Sandia Peak in the
Cibola National Forest affords an 11,000 square-mile panoramic
view of the Rio Grande Valley and the Land of Enchantment.
Located on the eastern edge of Albuquerque in the Sandia
Foothills at the end of Tramway Road.

The
Turquoise Trail, A Spectacular Drive
on Hwy. 14 from Santa Fe to I-40.
You drive back into New Mexico history, along the Ortiz
Mountains as the land stretches into breathtaking vistas.
Venture off the freeway and onto the Turquoise Trail National
Scenic Byway, and you'll see what we mean. The Scenic and
Historic Area encompasses 15,000 square miles in the heart of
central New Mexico, linking Albuquerque and Santa Fe. Enjoy a
breathtaking view from atop Sandia Crest, then drive back into
history through the mining towns of Golden, Madrid, and
Cerrillos, now coming alive with art, crafts, theater, music,
museums and restaurants.

The
Best Pueblo in
the Sky - Acoma: about an hour West of Albuq. off I-40
History whispers in the rough dirt streets and you
catch your breath as you gaze out from this mesa across -
Acoma's sacred land. Coronado thought he'd found one of the
fabled seven cities of gold when he first saw it. "Too bad he
was wrong," one mesa top tour guide opined. "We'd be doing
things a lot differently up here." Try to see it on one of the
feast days that are open to the public, when the main square
fills with dancers and the mood is celebration. Be sure to go
back down the steep, ancient footpath that for hundreds of years
was the only access. |

Easy hike along the banks of the Rio
Tesuque. Can be hiked year round. Great places to picnic
along the trail.
Directions: go north on Bishop's Lodge
Road. Almost 1 mile beyond the entrance to Bishop's Lodge
the road takes a 90 degree turn to the left, turn right here
on to a dirt road, County Road 72A. In a few minutes you
will see signs for parking. The trail begins just a few
minutes more up the road on the right immediately crossing
the creek on a foot bridge.

through It.
Taos Pueblo, north of Taos on 285.

American community designated both a World Heritage Site by
UNESCO and a National Historic Landmark. The multi-storied
adobe buildings have been continuously inhabited for over
1000 years. We welcome you to visit our village when you
