• Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park - Discover the dramatic landscapes and rich history of Monument Valley with a self-driving audio tour along the 17-mile marked Navajo route. As you drive, you’ll hear about the stunning “Wild West” formations of Monument Valley. The scenic vistas offer insights into Navajo culture and history, breathtaking panoramas of a unique landscape, and an unmatched experience. This self-guided audio tour provides maximum flexibility and value.

Note: This tour spans over 44 miles and covers the highlights of Monument Valley in 2-3 hours.

• Forrest Gump Point - Our journey through Monument Valley starts just outside the valley at Forrest Gump Point. The top of this hill provides a fantastic view of Monument Valley, made famous by the movie!
• Welcome Center - As we drive along this trail through the Navajo Nation, we’ll learn about the Navajo, the first tribe of Monument Valley, and how this desert emerged from a vast sea.
• Wildcat Trail - Our first detour is at Wildcat Trail, where you can step out and walk into the valley itself.
• West and East Mitten Buttes - The tour continues past the three striking formations of the iconic Monument Valley panorama: the East and West Mittens and Merrick Butte. Why are they called mittens? Why Merrick? We’ll uncover the stories behind these structures as we get closer.
• John Ford’s Point - As we venture deeper into Monument Valley, we’ll learn more about the Navajo, the mythical buried silver, and their struggle to defend their land against encroaching colonists. We’ll hear about the Long March of the Navajo, the Navajo Code Talkers of WWII, and the Navajo families living on the reservation today. We’ll also explore the portrayal of the Navajo in Western movies, particularly in John Ford’s Hollywood.
• Artist’s Point - As we continue learning, we drive to Artist’s Point. This overlook is famously popular among painters and illustrators. Many artists have set up their canvases here to capture this stunning landscape with paint and brush.
• North Window Overlook - Our drive takes us to the North Window Overlook, a perfect spot for sunrise. The morning rays illuminating the buttes and spires of Monument Valley are unforgettable! Even if you visit after sunrise, the views are unparalleled.
• Camel Butte - Finally, we reach the last incredible vista of the tour: Camel Butte and Elephant Butte. Camel Butte might not look much like a camel, but naming rocks requires some creativity! Camel Butte almost reaches 1,000 feet, but it is dwarfed by its sibling, Elephant Butte, which stands over 1,000 feet high. While impressive on its own, remember that you’re on a plateau already elevated around 5,000 feet, making the peak of Elephant Butte more than 6,000 feet above sea level!
