Scattered across the desert, the rock walls of 800-year-old pueblos tell the story of a thriving ancient community. Visitor Center exhibits reveal how these people farmed, hunted, gathered, and traded to sustain their way of life. Short trails lead to Wupatki, Lomaki, and other historic sites. For a breathtaking contrast, take the scenic drive to Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument, where the landscape shifts dramatically from desert to mountain.
