Santa Fe Visitor Information Center

Santa Fe sits 7,200 feet up in the southernmost end of the Rocky Mountains--the oldest and highest capital city in the U.S. The city is tucked into a valley of the Rio Grande surrounded by 1.5 million acres of unspoiled national forest. You'll find juniper and piñon-covered hills, aspen and cottonwood groves, pine forests, grassland, abundant fruit trees, lilacs, rose gardens and hollyhocks.

The Visitors Center is across the street from the State Capital building.
