Ghost Ranch

The red cliffs and Pedernal Mountain that Georgia O’Keeffe painted in her later years, with trails leading to Chimney Rock.

Located north of Abiquiu, about 100 kilometers from Santa Fe, the ranch is surrounded by red and yellow striped sandstone cliffs that served as the setting for many of O’Keeffe’s famous paintings. It is now a Presbyterian education center. You can join an O’Keeffe landscape tour, go horseback riding, or hike the Chimney Rock and Ghost Ranch trails. Fossils of a coelophysis dinosaur were also found here, and there is a paleontology museum. A day pass costs about $10.
