What To Expect

Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park

Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park is the heart of the Navajo Nation, known for its stunning landscapes that have been featured in numerous films. Spanning across Utah and Arizona, the park is famous for its red sandstone buttes, mesas, and spires that rise majestically from the desert floor. Visitors are immersed in the cultural and natural beauty of this sacred Navajo land. The area holds historical and spiritual significance to the Navajo people. Guided tours led by Navajo guides allow visitors to explore restricted parts of the valley, gaining insights into Navajo culture, history, and the awe-inspiring geography.

Wildcat Trail

Wildcat Trail is a 3.9-mile loop hike that offers visitors a close-up experience of the iconic West Mitten Butte. This trail, which is the only self-guided hiking path in Monument Valley, allows hikers to walk through the heart of the desert landscape, surrounded by towering sandstone formations.

John Ford’s Point

John Ford’s Point is named after the legendary film director John Ford, who filmed many Western classics in Monument Valley, including several starring John Wayne. The point offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the valley’s red rock formations and expansive desert floor. A popular spot for tourists, it is often featured in photographs that capture the grandeur of the valley. Visitors may also see Navajo horse riders offering photo opportunities. The view from this point is one of the most dramatic and cinematic in the park, evoking the spirit of the Old West.

Artist’s Point

Artist’s Point offers one of the most picturesque views in Monument Valley, providing a sweeping panorama of the valley’s iconic buttes, mesas, and spires. The vast expanse of the desert landscape, combined with the unique play of light and shadow across the rock formations, has inspired countless artists and photographers. It is especially stunning during sunrise or sunset when the red rocks glow with an ethereal beauty. Visitors often come here to capture the essence of Monument Valley on camera or simply to appreciate the natural artistry of the Navajo landscape.

North Window Overlook

The North Window Overlook is a serene spot in Monument Valley that offers a framed view of some of the valley’s most prominent buttes and mesas. The name “window” refers to the way the formations are perfectly framed by nearby cliffs, creating a natural window-like view of the landscape. This spot is perfect for photography and allows visitors to take in the vastness of the desert floor, with its rich red hues and striking rock formations. The North Window is a peaceful place to reflect on the beauty of the land and is less crowded than other viewpoints.
