The place
East of Santa Fe over Glorieta Pass, the land changes: ponderosa pines, the Pecos River, and the village of Pecos at the gateway to the Pecos Wilderness. Glorieta and Cañoncito sit along the pass. Buyers come for trout water, mountain cabins, and acreage in the trees.
What to love
- Fly fishing on the Pecos River
- The Pecos Wilderness at the end of the road
- Pines and shade in a high-desert region
- Thirty minutes to Santa Fe on I-25
- Character
- Mountain-village. Ranchers, Lab retirees, and second-home owners. Cooler and greener than Santa Fe, with real winters.
- Architecture
- Log and frame mountain homes, adobe farmhouses in the village, and newer homes on wooded acreage.
- What you’ll find
- River frontage, wooded acreage, cabins, and village homes.
- Lifestyle
- Fishing, hiking, and hunting. Pecos National Historical Park and the Glorieta battlefield are neighbors.
- Getting around
- East of Santa Fe via I-25 over Glorieta Pass. San Miguel and Santa Fe counties.
- Who it suits
- Buyers who want river and forest, and a second home that feels like a different climate from Santa Fe.
