New Mexico's Land of Enchantment
Hike and ride off the beaten track in New Mexico, the land that so inspired Georgia O'Keeffe. Where high-desert beauty awaits. A landscape steeped in culture and tradition, with routes perfect for biking and hiking. Like the back roads of Santa Fe past traditional adobe homes and sagebrush. The stunning vistas of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. The visits to Ancestral Puebloan sites. Or the high road to Chimayó. A path, a destination and a vastness you won't easily forget.
Highlights
- Bike through the charming outskirts of Santa Fe, stopping to browse galleries and folk art markets
- Hike breathtaking high-desert mesa landscapes outside Taos and walk up to ancient cliff dwellings at Bandelier National Monument
- Watch the sun set from your private terrace at Santa Fe's Four Seasons Resort Rancho Encantado
- Savor the delicious and distinctive cuisine of the Southwest, a blend of Native American, Spanish and Anglo foodways and flavors

We want to make sure you're on the trip that's right for you. Every Backroads trip is unique and this one is no exception.
While Backroads strives to find routes that are quiet and off the beaten track, that's not always possible in New Mexico and some biking options on this trip follow more heavily trafficked roads or roads with less shoulder. Of course, you're always welcome to jump in the shuttle to avoid the busier stretches.
