Considerations and Conditions
- The Enlightening Temple is located 50 minutes from Santa Fe, with the last 15 minutes on winding, rough roads. In addition, there are two locked gates along the way. Please plan to travel back and forth from Santa Fe in a carpool that we will organize.
- The walking trails at the Temple traverse uneven, hilly, and rocky terrain. Certain portions may have rocks, stumps, cactus, protruding branches, and other obstacles. Therefore, special alertness is needed when walking, and good hiking shoes are recommended. If you have any physical challenge that could make it difficult to hike on the trails, please notify us before registering.
- You may encounter insects, animals, and other wildlife on the property. Event participants are required to follow certain rules and procedures designed to prevent unwanted encounters. PLEASE NOTE: Basic first aid kits are on hand. But know that if you use an inhaler and/or may have the need for Epinephrine, you are responsible for bringing your own medication for self-administration. We do not have these things on hand.
- The Temple is located about 9,000 feet above sea level. We recommend you bring sun protection and lots of water to stay hydrated. In addition, because there can be unexpected wind and precipitation, please be prepared with layers of clothes and rain gear.
- Regarding services, there is no running water or other infrastructure, however, we will have a port-a-potty available. Please bring whatever food and drinking water you may need during your visit.
