Additional Arrival Information
We suggest that you arrive at least one day prior to the trip start, which will enable you to adjust to the time zone and minimize the risk of missing the trip start due to flight-related delays. We recommend that you fly into the Albuquerque International Sunport (ABQ) or the Santa Fe Municipal Airport (SAF). SAF is a small regional airport with limited flights options, therefore guests tend to have more success flying through ABQ. For guests arriving at ABQ, we recommend the Groome Shuttle (505-474-5696) to get you to Santa Fe. Shuttles can be booked in advance and are $46 per-person, one way.
If you plan to drive your own vehicle to the trip start and need a place to park it for the week, you may park at Bishops Lodge. Self-Parking during your stay is complementary.
Your Trek Travel guides will meet you at Bishop’s Lodge (1297 Bishops Lodge Road Santa Fe, New Mexico 87506) at 11:00 AM on the first day of the trip. After meeting at the hotel you'll enjoy a fresh, delicious lunch and, after a brief orientation and safety talk, saddle up to begin the day's ride through the historic town of Santa Fe. Please come prepared to ride, dressed in your cycling clothes, and have your shoes and any riding gear easily accessible, separate from your luggage.
If you will be late for the pick-up or are going to miss it altogether, please inform your guides. You will receive an email a week before the trip start with their names and contact details. If you cannot reach them, please call your first hotel, Bishop’s Lodge (505-983-6377) and leave a message with your expected arrival time and contact details. A taxi from Albuquerque International Airport to your ride start or first hotel will take about one hour and cost around $120-165 one way.
Additional Departure Information
We will say our farewells at the hotel at 11:00 AM in Santa Fe. From here you may choose to stay for more time in town or return to the Albuquerque Sunport via Groome Shuttle or another transportation method of your choosing.

Overview
Enjoy a delicious and hearty breakfast for today’s ride that will, if you choose, complete a loop that's a favorite among local cyclists. A large part of the ride is on rural roads with little car traffic. There are rolling hills with glorious, and picturesque views, like scenes from an old western movie. Our ride takes us to Galisteo.

The natural beauty of a high desert landscape, breathtaking sunsets and enchanted light has attracted many artists over the years. Today's ride ends in the all-adobe historic village of Galisteo where an incredibly diverse artist population live. We will shuttle to lunch at a favorite eatery. Choose to take the van or finish the loop ride back to our hotel. Once you return to the hotel, take some time to relax and enjoy the hotel amenities before dinner tonight on your own.

Overview
Our ride takes us north through the verdant and shaded art community named for the nearby Pueblo Tesuque. A short brisk climb is followed by a gentle 1,500-foot descent over 15 miles passing through the Pojoaque and Nambé Pueblos. Our ride includes rolling hills and wind-carved hoodoos of the badlands. After passing through the small village of Cundiyo and where the Santa Cruz, Frioles and Medio rivers converge, continue along the route until you reconnect with the High Road to Taos. After passing through the green, farming valley of Chimayó, we'll make a stop at the historic Santuario de Chimayó - a designated National Historic Landmark. Chimayó is also known for its thriving traditional weaving studios, many of which are owned and operated by descendants of the original Spanish settlers.
