Santa Fe Botanical Garden, Santa Fe

Opened in 2013, the 21-acre (8.5-hectare) Santa Fe Botanical Garden is the newest addition to Museum Hill; a beautiful outdoor space perfect for picnicking in warm weather, which also offers amazing views. The garden focuses on drought-tolerant plants, featuring a zero-irrigation garden as well as an orchard with peach, apple, and cherry trees.

To make the most of your visit, join a guided tour from April to October, available every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Community Day starting at 11 AM. The topics might change depending on the guide, but each tour lasts 40–50 minutes, covers different areas of the Garden, and is based on the mission to celebrate, cultivate, and conserve the region's rich botanical heritage and biodiversity. No registration is needed, and there's no extra charge beyond the Garden's admission fee.
