Trinidad Colorado is on the Colorado side of Raton Pass, with more Santa Fe Trail points of interest.
South of Raton, the Santa Fe Trail follows US 64 for several miles en route to the small town of Cimarron. While the Trail itself isn't much to look at on this segment few authentic ruts are visible, the drive is scenic, and west of Cimarron the highway enters the beautiful Sangre de Cristo Mountains with many fine views and hiking opportunities on the way to Taos.
