Best of Santa Fe E-Bike Tour

Uncover the highlights & hidden gems of New Mexico’s stunning capital

Enchantment awaits on this guided electric bike tour of ‘The City Different’, where every stop reveals more of the artistic heritage, natural beauty, and architectural style of Santa Fe. Ranked as one of the top 11 bike tours in the USA, this 3.5-hour tour is guaranteed to deliver a day to remember, showcasing a Santa Fe beyond the guidebooks.

Starting out from the city, your e-bike will help you make light work of the hillside roads that draw adventurous pedalers into the pygmy forests surrounding Santa Fe.

The tour’s first stop is the Cross of the Martyrs at Fort Marcy, erected to commemorate the 21 Franciscan friars and 380 Spanish colonists killed during the Pueblo Revolt of 1680. This twenty foot-high cross offers spectacular panoramic views over Santa Fe.

Your e-bike tour then rides downtown, weaving through the historic neighborhoods that line the way to the Santa Fe River. Exploring these charming neighborhoods is like cycling through the living history of Santa Fe, giving you a true feel for the city.

Crossing the Santa Fe River, your bike tour will then make its way up Canyon Road – the center of the local art scene. Canyon Road is home to more art galleries than anywhere else in the entire United States and exemplifies the alternative charm of old Santa Fe.

Having soaked up the atmosphere of this artistic neighborhood, you’ll cycle the open roads of the Sangre de Cristo foothills, passing by Museum Hill and the State Capitol building as your bike tour descends back downtown.

Your Santa Fe day trip then journeys to the recently redeveloped Railyard Arts District, providing a contrast with Old Santa Fe. The pedestrian promenade here leads you onto the Acequia Trail – a scenic path that runs alongside the irrigation ditches leading to historic Frenchy’s Field.

Having spent a peaceful moment in the recreation area, your e-bike tour will wind its way back to Loretto, tracing the Santa Fe River right back into the heart of ‘The City Different’.
