If you are interested in petroglyphs and pictographs, in short "Rock Art." This is one of the most famous rock art archaeological sites in the World. Be sure to go down the dirt road for a couple miles for the "real" good stuff.

I parked at the entrance right off the highway on the right (there is also a road, which I did not take, that goes further in I think to the hidden caves). Anyway there is a show loop through the petroglyphs which only takes a few minutes. The petroglyphs are pretty worn but still interesting. From there I took the longer trail. It's rocky with sparse brush. A good option for hikers.

We stopped there to view the petroglyphs and to have a picnic at the shaded picnic tables after spending the morning in the nearby Sand Mountain Recreational Area.

Far from the best petroglyphs I've seen. Poor interpretive signage particularly over by the caves. I found the geology more interesting then the petroglyphs. I wouldn't go out of the way to see it unless you are an academic type.

It's very simple and self guided. Don't expect much but it's free. Cool Petroglyphs you could get a good view of and good photos. Only about a mile hike to see pretty much everything on the main trail. Hidden Point was a longer hike and mostly uphill, less Petroglyphs but some cool caves. The Tour inside the largest cave only takes place twice a month so make sure to go on the scheduled times if you want to see that. We had fun without seeing that tour.

Nice place to take a walk or hike with the dogs or family. I would go before it gets too hot. Interesting petroglyphs but you can see where people have chipped some off to take, which is too bad. Just leave it alone!

We stopped for a break on our drive along the loneliest road. It's a nice picnic area with restrooms. There are several different trails, so you can spend as much time as you like hiking and exploring the petroglyphs. There are signs posted along the trail that provide additional info about what you see. We enjoyed the break.

Easily accessible for all to view. Here it showcases several different styles of petroglyphs and rock surfaces upon which they are etched. Some petroglyphs are faded and hard to see but remain a great glimpse into the history of those who left them behind.

This is one of the places that is a must see! I was impressed by all we saw, but the oldest row of pitted "holes" was amazing. Visit some of the local caves too.Take care of our heritage!

Good exercise, but could have benefitted from having a tour guide. Can sign up for a tour at the museum in town.
