Summer is here! Now is the time to enjoy high-country hikes in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains above Santa Fe. Wildflowers are everywhere and the forest is flush with life. Drives to local trailheads are only 30 minutes or so, and you can enjoy hikes from easy walks to challenging ascents. And if you have more time and stamina, this is the season to enjoy long hikes in the Pecos Wilderness east of Santa Fe. Bandelier National Monument is great any time of year, but summer mornings are delightful.
Outspire books only private parties on a first-come, first-served basis. If we can be part of your plans, please let us know as soon as you can. Give us a call or use our handy, no obligation Reservation Form to begin!
Variety of Destinations
New Mexico offers loads of trails and different terrain. Day hikes can be enjoyed year-round although different places are more enjoyable in each season. Since all our trips are customized for you, we'll talk with you about what you might find most interesting, your schedule, and your abilities to help pick just the right place to spend time with you!

Alpine: The Sangre de Cristo Mountains rise above Santa Fe on the east and the Jemez Mountains stand across the wide valley to our west. Cool shady trails into the forest are best from late spring to fall, or on snowshoes during winter.
Mesas and canyons: Spectacular vistas, sculptural rock formations and incredible colors are hallmarks of these slightly lower elevation areas. Best visited fall through spring, or early morning during summer. Special tours: Some places are just so special they deserve their own category. Bandelier National Monument's archaeological areas, Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks Monument and it's fantastic volcanic past, Ghost Ranch near Abiquiu with it's sandstone mesas made famous by Georgia O'Keeffe, and the forested plateaus of the Pecos Wilderness fall into this category for us. All our tours are hikes, but the ones to these places can be milder (or wilder). |
