The Bandelier National Monument is an attraction that stands as a dramatic reminder of the astounding culture that has inhabited Santa Fe and its surrounding areas for hundreds of years.

The rustic area features 65 miles of trails that also include some visually arresting abandoned Pueblo villages.
