The Big Tesuque Trail Run

The Big Tesuque Trail Run

The Santa Fe Striders Running Club will be hosting the 39th running of The Big Tesuque Trail Run on Saturday, October 11th. The Big Tesuque (Big T) Run is a 12-mile up-and-back run on the Aspen Vista Trail in the Santa Fe National Forest. 

This Santa Fe classic starts at the Aspen Vista trail head off of Hyde Park Road. Runners will climb to the radio towers on Tesuque Peak before returning. Join the Striders for a fun day with food, prizes, and Native American dancing! 

Proceeds from the race will benefit Wings of America, a non-profit organization that provides running programs and mentorship to Native American youth and teens, building strength and character in young minds. 

The Big Tesuque Trail Run is sponsored by Santa Fe County's Economic Development Division. Come run with us, Santa Fe!

Recommended Lodging

Yurts At Hyde Memorial State Park

Connect with the heart of nature in Hyde Memorial State Park's ponderosa pine mountain forest, where three yurts provide a unique lodging experience that's rooted in an ancient nomadic tradition. Each yurt contains six single beds that can be grouped together in various configurations. Kick back in your outside activity area, with a fire ring, dining table and food safe, to keep the critters away. Vault toilets and water are just a short walk away.

Houses Of The Moon At Ten Thousand Waves

In the tradition of the Japanese ryokan, guests have a short walk from their rooms to the rustic spa, inspired by Japanese-style mountain hot spring resorts. The distinctive details in each of the 14 unique guest rooms and suites reflect Japanese simplicity, and many include courtyards, decks, a private Japanese garden and a kiva fireplace. Surrounded by 20 acres of piñons and junipers in high mountain wilderness, yet just ten minutes away from downtown Santa Fe, this is your choice for an easily accessible romantic vacation in an exotic destination.
