About the book
Santa Fe local Steven Horak reveals the very best of his home state, from hiking sandstone canyons to chowing down on Southwestern cuisine. Fall under the spell of the Land of Enchantment with Moon New Mexico. Inside you'll find:
- Strategic, flexible itineraries, whether you want to take an epic two-week road trip around the state or spend a week immersed in Wild West history
- Can't-miss experiences and unique activities: Wander through a ghost town graveyard, count the bullet holes in the ceilings of preserved 19th-century saloons, or visit the birthplace of the atomic bomb. Soar through clear blue skies in a colorful hot air balloon, find inspiration in Santa Fe's vibrant art scene, or have an out-of-this-world experience at the International UFO Museum & Research Center in Roswell
- Savor the flavors: Dig into traditional local cuisine, like red sauce-smothered enchiladas, tender carne adovada, and hearty posole. Indulge in juicy green chile cheeseburgers or opt for something lighter from one of New Mexico's many organic farm-to-table restaurants
- Outdoor adventures: Go deep on a trek into the mesmerizing underground world of Carlsbad Caverns or venture off-trail in the De-Na-Zin Wilderness to view stunning hoodoos. Raft from rushing waters to gentle currents on the Rio Grande or explore the wavelike gypsum dunes of White Sands National Park
- Ways to respectfully engage with Indigenous cultures: Attend a dance ceremony or a powwow, tour a pueblo, or peruse handmade goods at a market
- Expert insight from Santa Fe local Steven Horak on when to go, what to pack, and where to stay
- Full-color photos and detailed maps throughout
- Thorough background information on the landscape, local culture, climate, and history, plus health and safety information
