Accessible Adventures - Albuquerque & Santa Fe New Mexico

While in New Mexico for the Ballon Fiesta last year, we were able to enjoy a few other things in the area! Overall the accessibility was great and provided for some amazing adventures. Highly recommend Sandia Peak Tramway and the Balloon Fiesta (separate video coming) but if trying to do both during the same stay, the tramway is extremely busy during that same week and you'll need to get tickets ahead of time.
Stay tuned for more videos, including the Balloon Fiesta, an accessible treehouse, our glamping experience and more!

    Albuquerque is around 230 miles one way from where I live in New Mexico. I’ve been to Albuquerque numerous times as some of my medical appointments are there, but only once to Santa Fe. I find Albuquerque to be very accessible, but a lot of the buildings in Santa Fe are not. I remember trying to go into a restaurant in Santa Fe. My wife and mom had to go inside and ask if they had a wheelchair accessible entry. They had me go to the back and opened a door for me that was normally locked. Then once inside I had trouble getting to our table because the inside doorways were not wide enough for my 26 in wide power wheelchair. I have no idea what they would do with my current 28 in wide manual wheelchair. The movie Wild Hogs was filmed in Madrid NM, just south of Santa Fe on HWY 14. The Maggie’s Dinner building is still there, but it’s a nonfunctional dinner. It’s just for a display and the building next door sells memorabilia. We ate at the Mine Shaft Tavern when we went through to see Maggie’s Dinner.

    Yea Santa Fe did seem much less accessible. Any historic cities get away with "grandfathering" in buildings to get around providing accessibility.
