You can choose hikes of 2 to 4 miles length, or more, depending upon your day's schedule and your party's stamina. Although you'll be hiking at high altitudes, from 8000' to 11,000', some hikes involve little elevation gain and are delightful for families or small groups. For a greater challenge you can choose steeper paths that gain as much as 1500' elevation and bring you to the edge of alpine tundra. But if you need a gentle, short, or simply lower-altitude walk, we can arrange that as well. You'll enjoy the characteristic mixed-conifer forest of the Southern Rockies at middle elevations, and the fragrant spruce-aspen forest higher up. Wildflowers dots streamsides and sunny meadows, changing constantly with the transition of summer into fall. Early autumn hikes catch the peak of the aspen color, but fall color persists in lower elevation canyons. We keep track of the leaf changes to help you choose the most spectacular displays.

We can choose among a variety of hikes, from gentle walks along canyon rims, to challenging descents more suitable for energetic hikers. A favorite moderate choice leads down a secluded tributary canyon, then contours along the rocky walls to a spectacular vista above the Rio Grande. For those hikers willing to make the rugged descent (and ascent!) of White Rock Canyon, we can visit some of the most remarkable petroglyph panels in northern New Mexico.

Bandelier National Monument was established in 1916 to preserve some 3000 archaeological sites scattered over the canyons and mesas of the arid Pajarito Plateau. Frijoles Canyon, the heart of the park, is famous for its Ancestral Puebloan cliff dwellings, some accessible by ladders, along its south-facing cliffs. Many of the most popular sites are easily accessed on well maintained trails, so if you are concerned about mobility, Frijoles Canyon is an ideal choice. In summer and fall, we can enhance your experience by hiking into the canyon along switchbacks built for visitors during the early years of the park's history. But Bandelier is more than the ancestral home of the Puebloan people. As in all national parks, a deeper experience awaits you just off the beaten path. A network of backcountry trails can take us into the narrow depths of upper Frijoles Canyon, or up and over remote mesa tops to spectacular overlooks of other canyon systems. And everywhere we will be accompanied by the music of the pines, for Bandelier is filled with groves of magnificent Ponderosa trees.

A two-hour looping hike only 35 minutes drive from Santa Fe will take us into this world, at a remarkable place called Tsankawi Mesa. Tsankawi is part of Bandelier National Monument. It brings together in a small place all the features for which the larger part of the park is famous. The views from the mesa-top ruin are magnificent. And this is a great hike for families. The colorful cliffs, twisting paths, ladders, and caves fascinate the younger ones.

Chief Tsosie's guides know all the hot spots and they will guide you through an amazing natural wonder of Antelope Canyon. They will provide you with the secret knowledge of photographing the beams and dance with the sand. We will have little chance to be alone in the canyon on this tour, nor will we be able to hear the quiet that some of the other tour times provide, but this tour is a photographic extravaganza. We believe we have the best time starting at 10:20 am for photographing the canyon. We get the early development of the light beams and stay until the beams start to lift off the canyon floor. This tour is lead with precision and experience. Antelope Slot Canyon Tours has invested heavily into our Luxury 4x4 Vans to insure that you have a comfortable trip to and from the canyons rain, snow or shine! Our vehicles are completely covered and offer heated and air conditioned rides no matter the time of year!

The Tour starts when you load up in their 8 person Ford Excursion with a lifted Kit and Air Conditioning and Heaters so that you travel in comfort to and from the Cathedral Canyon. This is important because the temperatures here can vary from 111 degrees in the summer to -10 Degrees in the Winter! Not to mention driving through the Dry Wash beds can be miserable if you are exposed to the elements. Once you get to the Canyon your Guide will point out various facts about the animal life in the area and the native plants once used by their ancestors long ago as well as what the Local Navajo people still use today. *This Tour Does Not Go To Antelope Canyon!

Visitors begin their guided Lower Antelope Canyon tour with a short 10-minute walk from the check-in booth to the entrance of of the canyon. The trail leading to the entrance of Lower Antelope Canyon is composed of Navajo sandstone making the decent to the canyon entrance both rocky and sandy, for our guests' safety and comfort we advise appropriate shoes be worn. As you begin your 1.5-hour adventure (all-walking) with Lower Antelope Canyon Tours, your experience will span roughly 1,800 meters (1.1 miles) round trip. Upon descending down five flights of stairs (35 meters) into the largest cavern of the tour, guests' will begin their majestic ascent through the kaleidoscope of colors naturally provided by the unique creation of Navajo Sandstone, as a result of rain, wind, and erosion. The numerous echelons throughout the canyon consist of eight uniquely built ladders (with handrails) for safety.
