Itinerary

Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park

Explore Monument Valley’s dramatic landscape and rich history with a self-driving audio tour along the 17-mile marked Navajo route. Hear about Monument Valley’s stunning “Wild West” formations as you drive. Monument Valley’s scenic vistas provide insights into Navajo culture and history, breathtaking panoramas of a strange landscape, and an unparalleled experience. This self-guided audio tour allows you to explore with maximum flexibility and value. Note: This 44+ mile-long tour covers the essentials of Monument Valley in 2-3 hours.

10 minutes
Forrest Gump Point

Our tour of Monument Valley actually begins a little outside the valley: Forest Gump Point. The crest of this hill offers a fantastic panorama of Monument Valley... made famous by the movie!

10 minutes
N/A

As we begin driving along this trail through the Navajo Nation, we'll learn about the Navajo, the first tribe of Monument Valley, and how this desert formed out of a vast sea.

10 minutes
Wildcat Trail

We'll hit our first detour at Wildcat Trail, where you can hop out walk into the valley itself.

10 minutes
N/A

Our tour continues past the three striking formations of the iconic "Monument Valley" panorama. These are the East and West Mittens and Merrick Butte. Why mittens? Why Merrick? We'll learn all about these structures and their histories as we get closer.

10 minutes
John Ford’s Point

As we follow the trail deeper into Monument Valley, we'll learn more about the Navajo, the mythical buried silver, and their struggle to defend their land against the ever-encroaching colonists. We'll learn about the Long March of the Navajo, the Navajo Code Talkers of WWII, and the Navajo families on the reservation land today. We'll also explore the depiction of the Navajo in Western movies -- specifically in John Ford's Hollywood.

10 minutes
Artist’s Point

As we learn, we're also driving. The tour brings us next to Artist's Point. This overlook, unsurprisingly, is famously popular among painters and illustrators. Countless artists have set up canvasses here and recreated this stunning landscape with paint and brush.

15 minutes
North Window Overlook

Our drive continues towards the North Window Overlook, a picture-perfect spot for the sunrise. Those morning rays illuminating the buttes and spires of Monument Valley aren’t something you’ll soon forget! Even if you're here after sunrise, the vistas are unparalleled.

15 minutes
Camel Butte

Finally, we're at the last incredible vista of the tour: Camel Butte and Elephant Butte. Camel Butte might not look especially like a camel, but when you’re naming rocks you have to get creative! Camel Butte almost hits 1,000 feet but pales in comparison to its sibling, Elephant Butte, stretching over 1,000 feet high. Now that might be impressive on its own, but remember that you’re on a plateau right now which is already raised around 5,000 feet. That means the peak of Elephant Butte is more than 6,000 feet above sea level!

Super experience

Published on Dec, 2024

Super help, good information, use anytime and affordable. Will do again, excellent experience. Thank you for offering different options to travel and learn.

Good guide to an astonishing place

Published on Sep, 2024

This was just what we wanted from an audio guide. Often they are overly long and lag behind the pace of travel, but this was informative, entertaining and a good listen.

Worth the visit the audio made it even better.

Published on Jul, 2024

The rock formations are hard to describe. It takes your breath away. The road could use some improvement but there were recents storms that had damaged the road. The audio added to the trip with explainations and stories.

Amazing

Published on Jun, 2024

Fantastic, Information inside was very interesting. Cafe and shop is lovely. Trail is fantastic. Dirt track roads and very uneven, you have to drive very slow, but in awe of what you see as you drive around.

We spent so much time just talking it all in and capturing life long memories

Published on Jun, 2024

It was amazing and got lots of photos , I think definitely worth seeing and something to put on your bucket list of things to do and see
