Pilgrimage to Santuario de Chimayó

“Preparedness tips for walkers & guidelines for motorists”

El Santuario de Chimayo Pilgrimage Preferred Route
As the annual pilgrimage to El Santuario de Chimayó approaches, Santa Fe County reminds the public that more than two dozen public safety agencies across the region are coordinating efforts to ensure the safety of thousands of peregrinos this Good Friday, April 18, 2025.

The Santa Fe County Fire Department, Office of Emergency Management, and Sheriff’s Office are working closely with regional partners to provide a unified safety response, including traffic management, emergency medical services, and on-the-ground assistance along the pilgrimage route.

Enhanced traffic patrols will be in effect. Law enforcement agencies, including the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office, New Mexico State Police, the Espanola Police Department, Rio Arriba Sheriff’s Office, Santa Fe City Police Department, Tesuque and Pojoaque Police Departments, Los Alamos Police Department, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Santa Fe County Animal Control, along with firefighters from various departments, will work together to safeguard the event.

Careful planning is crucial for those intending to participate. With traffic congestion in mind, consider developing a pre-planned route, check-in locations, and pre-arranged pick-up and drop-off points. Remember that cell phone service may be limited depending on your wireless carrier.
