The Old Spanish Trail was a historic pack trail from Santa Fe to the Pueblo of Los Angeles. Mexican traders used it to bring woolen goods from New Mexico to trade for highly prized California mules and horses, and emigrants to California also traveled it. The trail originated as a trade route between New Mexico and Utah during the Spanish colonial era and later extended west to California during the Mexican period.
