The High Road to Taos is known as the most scenic way to travel from Santa Fe to Taos, but it’s more than just a drive. The roadtrip takes you through the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, winding past small villages and cultural attractions with options to explore along the way. It’s well worth the extra […]

I’ve wanted to go to Meow Wolf in Santa Fe ever since I first heard of it. To be honest, I didn’t even really understand what it was — I just need the photos were intriguing and the mystery made it even more enticing. But realistically, any attraction that’s labeled as “immersive” piques my interest.

One of the reasons New Mexico is so cool is because it has tremendous geological formations that no one outside the state knows about.

When I drove out to Bisti Badlands, I didn’t exactly expect an epic experience. I was there for the scenery (and of course a good hike) but I assumed it would be a rather ordinary day. I certainly didn’t expect that New Mexico’s Badlands would live up to their name, but that’s exactly what happened

Is there anything more beautiful than fall foliage? Yes. It gets even more beautiful when you add snow to the mix. It was pure luck that the day I drove the Enchanted Circle scenic byway out of Taos that a layer of snow had blanketed the area overnight. The vivid yellow aspens against New
Is it the journey or the destination that matters most? The scenic route from Albuquerque to Santa Fe (better known as the New Mexico Turquoise Trail) lets you enjoy both. The route takes you past scenic views of Sandia Crest, through old mining towns like Golden and Cerillo, and into the artist enclave of Madrid. Whether you’re

Less than an hour from Santa Fe is a natural wonder and archaeological site of the Ancestral Pueblo people. Today, this protected area within the Frijoles Canyon is known as Bandelier National Monument, a day trip that doesn’t get nearly enough mention. Bandelier National Monument In fact, I nearly never went there. My parents and I had
