Create an itinerary including Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park
Made famous by its sandstone buttes, Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park straddles the border of northeastern Arizona and southeastern Utah. Established in 1956, the park strives to preserve the Navajo way of life and features an otherworldly landscape of rugged sandstone hills and soaring rock spires. The protected park lies within a Navajo reservation near a small town of Goulding, which once served as a trading post. Start your exploration at the visitor center, where you can check for current road conditions, arrange for guided four-wheel drive or horseback tours of the valley, and try authentic Navajo cuisine. As you drive up to the visitor center, keep an eye out for roadside stands selling Navajo arts and crafts.

  • One of the best tribal experiences ever! It's like a safari where you can drive and see the stunning rocks. Amazing! The price is 8$ per person. Stayed there hours and there is shadows because of the rocks - very pleasant to rest on the rock's shadow. Gift shop offer a good selection of gifts - prices will be more than the entrance fee even for a magnet. Worth taking here as you cannot find anywhere else - beautiful.
  • This is truly a bucket list landmark, a must see if you are visiting Arizona. A park with astonishing views and beauty. Visitors need to pay an entry fee which gives you access to the car loop and a couple of walking trails. I highly recommend arriving before noon as the loop is open only until 3 pm and the trails only until 4 pm. The loop could take you 90 minutes to complete since there are several spots worth stopping. Restrooms available at the Visitors Center
