Know Before You Go!

We want you to be fully prepared for your cycling vacation of a lifetime. This involves making sure that you choose the appropriate trip for you and that every aspect of your experience is flawless. Each Trek Travel trip is unique to ensure maximum enjoyment every time.

Your Trip Need to Knows:

  • Altitude: Santa Fe sits at 7,000 feet (2,130 meters) of elevation. Be sure to stay hydrated, take it easy, and eat light meals to adjust comfortably.
  • Road conditions: The pavement may not always be what is preferred due to New Mexico’s rural nature. And, at times, roads can be heavily trafficked with little to no shoulder access. Please note that we do our best to find the safest routes with the best experience.
  • Packing: Layers! Layering is the best way to regulate your body temperature. This tried-and-true strategy is all about slipping layers on and off as your activity level or the weather changes.
