El Rancho de las Golondrinas (The Ranch of the Swallows) is a former ranch in the northern part of the U.S. state of New Mexico that has been recreated as a "living museum". It was the last camping place ("cf." caravanserai) on the Camino Real before reaching Santa Fe, New Mexico. Its 200 acres is located Convert|12|mi|km|0|abbr=on southwest of Santa Fe on Los Pinos Road, just north of La Bajada Hill in the Caja del Rio.
The ranch was founded by Miguel Vega y Coca in 1710. [Julyan, Robert Hixson (1998) "El Rancho de las Golondrinas" "The place names of New Mexico" (2nd ed.) University of New Mexico Press, Albuquerque, NM, p. 120, ISBN 0-8263-1688-3] The "living museum" recreates 18th Century Spanish colonial ranch life.[Harris, Richard (2007) "Off the Beaten Path: New Mexico" (8th ed.) Morris Book Publishing, Guilford, CT, p. 103, ISBN 0-7627-4205-4] Guides are dressed in period clothing and demonstrate how people lived for example grinding their own flour, making their own tools, shoeing horses. There are two annual festivals at El Rancho de las Golondrinas, one in the Spring and one in October.]Notes
