Santa Fe In Winter

Although Santa Fe is an ideal destination for travel no matter what time of the year, winter is a wonderful time to visit not only for the fun but also for the prices. Get to know a little more about what Santa Fe has to offer you in winter and any time of the year.

Beginning January 27th and running through February 5th, Santa Fe will be welcoming visitors to come and enjoy their second annual Winter Fiesta. Featuring concerts, parties, comedy, food, shopping and discounts on accommodations and skiing, this is one festival you may not want to miss when exploring the Santa Fe area.

If you cant make it for this festival, there is still plenty to see and do in Santa Fe in winter, especially those who enjoy the snow. Situated about 7,000 feet above see level in the foothills of the southern Rocky Mountains, snow comes often to this, the highest and oldest capital city in the U.S. A unique destination, Santa Fe hosts over a million visitors each and every year and is not only great for recreation but is also a well established arts and cultural center offering nearly 300 galleries and art dealers as well as over 12 major museums dealing with not only the art but the cultures and history of the area as well.

Winter in Santa Fe can see plenty of snow. Despite the almost 300 days of sun, the cooler temps still bring the area almost 300 inches of snow a year to the higher elevations making it a skiers paradise.

Some of the area ski areas include:

Santa Fe Ski Basin Area
Ski Santa Fe
Ski New Mexico
Valles Caldera National Preserve
