Visiting the Tesuque Pueblo attraction is very much like time traveling. You will see how this little "pueblo," or small town went about its everyday business through the work its inhabitants did in order to provide for their families. You'll see an organic farm, traditional pottery studios and various other interesting stops. This pueblo dates back to 1694 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. You may want to learn more about the standard pueblo etiquette before your visit.

The Santa Fe Rodeo is ranked as one of the nation's 100 top rodeos, and with good reason. This festival event is held every June, and features everything from barrel racing to bareback and bull riding. The rodeo has a rich history, as it has been roping in fans since it first was held back in 1949. This is an excellent family event, as the kids will enjoy the Mutton Bustin' event, carnival rides, and lots of great food and fun.

Nature lovers love to get up close and personal with their natural surroundings, and sometimes, the best way to do that is to simply hit the trail! In Santa Fe, one of the most popular ones is the Atalaya Mountain Trail. One of the reasons that this trail is so popular is because of its easy accessibility, as visitors can take the "M" city bus to the trailhead on the campus of St. John's College. This trail is one of the area's more challenging excursions, as it heads up a 9,121-foot peak and has areas that are a challenge, even for the most seasoned outdoorsman.
