Winner of the 2024 New Mexico-Arizona Book Award for Travel

Slow travel is the secret to opening doors, meeting people, participating in surprising events, experiencing joy, and making each trip--no matter how short or long--deeper, richer, and an adventure that is uniquely yours.

Award-winning travel journalists and Santa Fe residents Judith Fein and Paul J. Ross crisscross New Mexico, finding unforgettable adventures readers can personally experience such as painting with an abstract artist on the Navajo Reservation, visiting a wolf refuge, cruising in a lowrider, hiking in a volcano, gourmet dining at Zuni Pueblo, seeing a ghost, tracking the true Billy the Kid . . . and so much more.

Slow Travel New Mexico is an invitation to show up in a place and let it reveal itself to you--on its own terms. It's not about going off the beaten path. It's about going off the beaten mental path by learning to look, see, open up, and explore differently. It's a guide to unforgettable experiences.
