St. John’s College is never mentioned in so many Santa Fe videos. The Summer Classics Program is fantastic.

Thanks for the great tips, especially about the high altitude. Visiting for the first time in August for the Santa Fe Opera Festival. One week road trip from L.A. Excited!

Santa Fe looks like a fabulous place to visit, I love the style of the buildings and it's good that there aren't a lot of hotel chains there. It would make for having a more authentic local experience.
@patricktimothy8354 1 year ago

You should always wear a hat out there when hiking. That high altitude sun is even more brutal on the bare head. The Santa Fe/Taos/Enchanted Circle part of New Mexico is one of my favorite places in the world. There are affordable small condos near Fort Marcy Park too.I stayed there in October 2019 for less than 200 a night and I had a full kitchen. But definitely eat at some of the incredible restaurants in the area. Also,the fall colors will blow your mind. The Aspen trees put on an amazing color show in the mountains and other plants along the rivers and springs add color to the desert.And if you are lucky to see early fall snow dust the 13 and 12 thousand feet peeks surrounding Santa Fe,you will witness something literally breathtaking like I did years ago while walking my friend's dog at a dog park-even the every day activity can be life-changing out there!
