$22.95
An epub file for the 2nd edition is in development but not done yet.
———————————–
What’s in the second edition?
-
- The new alternate routes in the north half of the SF2T. These cut “road walking” (forest service road walking) in half.
-
- Significantly updated and expanded logistics information
-
- Way more detailed information about campsites, with campsites included in the section maps
-
- Way more detailed information about water sources, with campsites included in the section maps
Do you need the second edition to do the SF2T?
No. You’ll miss the new parts in the north half that skip the forest roads, but you can still do the SF2T.
Will there be a digital version of the second edition?
Yes. An epub file. That’s the same file format Kindle books use. So you’ll be able to import the epub file into Kindle devices, the Kindle app, or any of the many other reading apps available.

- How to do the route as a series of day hikes or one to two-night overnights
- Lodging, dining, and things to do in Santa Fe and Taos and along The High Road to Taos
The high country of Northern New Mexico is a treasure. Some of it is well-known, but much is not. Discover hidden alpine lakes, stunning vistas, and what the Milky Way looks like without light pollution at 11,000 feet. At ten miles a day, the Santa Fe to Taos Trail can be completed in about two weeks — just long enough for the perfect summer vacation. Or make it last a little longer and do the route in a series of weekends.
The 2nd edition has the improved 2026 route, which includes 50% less forest road walking and two significant short reroutes that make the route safer. It will also have significantly expanded logistics information, sub-section maps with water and campsites marked on them, and other small improvements.
The second edition will not be available on Amazon as part of the work to reduce overuse on the trail. The second edition will not be available on Amazon as part of the work to reduce overuse on the trail. It will have only extremely limited availability in bookstores. It will only be available via the Santa Fe to Taos Trail website until I can assure myself, local hikers, the Forest Service, and the local nations, pueblos and tribes that we have managed the overuse situation and that the SF2T is not going to trash the woods or disrupt local communities.
