Galisteo

The site of the ancient Tano Indian Galisteo Pueblo, Galisteo was part of a Spanish Land Grant in the 1600s. Today, this sleepy village of adobe homes boasts an incredibly diverse artist population, and is centered in the magnificent Galisteo Basin, widely considered one of the most impressive archeological sites in the country. Lying between mountain ranges and connecting the Rio Grande Valley with the Great Plains, the Galisteo Basin was used as a trade route by prehistoric and historic indigenous peoples and later by the Spanish explorers. The region is named for Galisteo Pueblo, one of nine pueblo ruins in the basin. Located along the Galisteo Creek, the village feels timeless, with ancient cottonwoods lining the Galisteo River and the historic church, Iglesia Nuestra Señora de los Remedios, standing like a sentry.

Glorieta

Glorieta is the site of the Civil War’s westernmost battle, fought in 1852. Union forces defeated Confederate troops at Glorieta Pass, eventually forcing their retreat from New Mexico. Since then, the integrity of the battlefield has been compromised by progress. New Mexico State Highway 50 runs through the battlefield, passing just three feet from the Pigeon’s Ranch building, the only remaining structure from the time of the battle. Located off of I-25 at exit 299, Glorieta, which lies on the original 1926 alignment of Route 66 along the Santa Fe Trail, is a perfect place to access magnificent hiking and mountain biking trails for great outdoor adventures in the Pecos Wilderness.

La Bajada Hill

At this formidable landmark, with a dramatic 1300-foot ascent to Santa Fe, the Spanish divided their colonies into the Rio Arriba (Upper River) and Rio Abajo (Lower River). Traversing La Bajada Hill Road was once an arduous trip but, in the 1930s, the Highway Department moved the road three miles to the east to the same route currently used by I-25. You can still see petroglyphs, wagon ruts, and the initials of drivers who climbed the hill in the early 1910s and 1920s, remnants of the long history of travel up the hill.

Driving Directions
Take I-25 to the Cochiti Pueblo exit/NM-16. Travel west on NM-16 for 3.5 miles. Turn right on the Tetilla Peak Recreation Area road. After one mile, turn right onto an unmarked dirt road, continue 1.5 miles, and park past the bridge over the Santa Fe River. The old road turns right from the bridge.

La Cienega

This historic community south of Santa Fe sits on the site of an ancient pueblo, deriving its name from the Spanish word “cienega,” meaning “spring and its marsh.” Today, these waters supply El Rancho de las Golondrinas, the acclaimed living history museum located on the old Camino Real, the Royal Road that once linked Mexico City to Santa Fe. Travelers on that road long ago stopped in this place, to rest and to drink from those waters. Today, travelers stop here to take in New Mexico's history, heritage and culture of the18th and 19th centuries through the museum's annual festivals, original buildings and interpretive guides dressed in the style of the times. Other visitors head to Ojo Santa Fe Spa and Resort to soak in spring-fed waters and relax beneath old-growth cottonwoods. A trip to nearby La Cieneguilla Petroglyph Site rewards you with thousands of ancient rock art images.

La Cieneguilla Petroglyph Site
