Navajo National Monument


By visiting Navajo National Monument, we have visited at least 140 of the national parks, monuments, seashores, etc. Wahoo!

The park has a small but interesting museum. I liked the reproduction of a family dwelling along with the pots.


Dinosaur footprint near the visitor center.




The walk to the viewpoint was great. It is around a mile out, but in good shape with several signs identifying plants and a pretty good view!

We saw quite a few cliff ruins while in Canyon de Chelly, but the Betatackin ruins here are in better shape and the overlook is closer so you can see more details.

We could have got closer to these ruins or another one called Keet Seel but the walks are guided tours at certain times and didn’t fit our schedule.

The views from Canyon de Chelly to Page were quite varied.
