Georgia O'Keefe called it "The Faraway", this enchanted land of stark beauty and clear light. A walk here is akin to stepping into an O'Keeffe masterpiece. On paths forged by Indians and Conquistadors, we pass through green valleys, desert canyons, mountain trails, forests of pine and juniper. This magical terrain still inspires and artists thrive. Native American festivals celebrate the sun, sky, the land and the creatures that inhabit it. Intimate, enchanting, the old city of Santa Fe glows in the desert sunlight against the blue backdrop of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Rich in history, diverse in culture, we begin and end our walk in this magical city at the end of the Santa Fe Trail.
