From the origin of ancient civilizations to the birthplace of atomic energy, New Mexico's unique influence spans the millennium, its colorful history and landscape inspiring elite artists and writers such as Georgia O'Keefe and D.H. Lawrence.
You, too, will be fascinated by New Mexico's compelling blend of history and scenic beauty as you road bike through the Sangre de Cristo Mountains on this high desert and alpine cycling vacation. Days are spent cycling the forested flanks of Wheeler Peak, the state's highest point found in the southernmost stretches of the Rocky Mountains. As you head north from Santa Fe, the terrain is relatively flat and descends to cross the Rio Grande. The terrain is rolling along the way from Ghost Ranch to Tres Piedras. The Enchanted Circle is at minimum 6000 feet in elevation with several high climbs to over 9000 feet. In the evenings and between rides, take time to relax in Taos and Santa Fe, where strong Spanish and Native American influences radiate from their distinctive architecture, art, and hospitality.
