  • USA - New Mexico - In this video we follow the High Road from Santa Fe to Taos. Santa Fe is the capital of US state New Mexico. Taos is located north of Santa Fe, 70 miles by the low road along the Rio Grande and 90 miles by the high road. You drive through various sorts of landscape: desert-like terrain and dense forests. Over plateaus and through valleys. A wonderful experience for a common Dutch visitor.
    In deze documentaire volgen we de High Road van Santa Fe naar Taos. Santa Fe is de hoofdstad van de Amerikaanse staat New Mexico. Taos ligt noordelijk van Santa Fe, 70 mijl via de low road langs de Rio Grande en 90 mijl via de high road. De route gaat door een zeer afwisselend landschap, door woestijnachtig terrein en dichte bossen. Over hoogvlakten en door dalen. Een prachtige ervaring.

    A beautiful drive, recommended to all. I came to NM at 28 y.o. in 1974. It was the best decision of my life.

    Spent days "in town" visiting from our cabin high in the mountains east of Taos. 61 yrs ago at 12 yrs of age, l stood near the plaza with two very old Pueblo Indians. My father came and said I shouldn't bother them. But they protested and said I was welcome. We talked and they gave me gifts of perfectly formed tiny rock Crosses. They said they were called tears of Christ. These are found on their holy Mountain, Wheeler Peak. My grandfather bought land & a cabin in 1920. I knew and loved many of those old people that lived through the waning days of the wild west. I have sad memories of that Saturday afternoon and the sight of smoke rising from the old Cathedral as it began to burn to the ground. Summers in those high Sangre de Christos were welcome relief from the high plains of the Texas Panhandle once the wheat was cut.

    Thanks for this beautiful video. Heading back to New Mexico, in a couple of weeks, for the first time in over forty years. Such gorgeous country, can't wait to finally be back there again.

    My grand parents house in Chimayo is over 300 years old. I’ve been to much of the high road but have not driven the whole way to Taos. Next time we will! Thanks!

    Nice tour but missed Peñasco and Ranchos de Taos, both with places worth stopping for.

    It begins much closer to Nambe. I usually bypass SF on the way to Taos. I love taking the high road tho. The weather can change quite a lot along the way. Thank you.

    The church of Trampas - perhaps my best loved building in the US. Thanks for your video (with excellent choice of music).

      We share our opinion of the beauty of the church of Trampas. Thank you for your kind words.

    I enjoyed this video because your music is not too loud and obnoxious like most other travel videos.

    I've made the drive from Santa Fe to Taos on the canyon road. It's incredibly beautiful and worth the time and effort.
