Robert writes, "This Park has a nominal entrance fee, with a 17 mile loop road you can either drive, or pay for a guided tour. We decided on driving ourselves since we had an AWD vehicle. The road is mostly dirt with sparse gravel at times...and it is rough! However, the scenery and views are epic, and worth enduring the 'not so pleasant' roads."

From the website:
Welcome to the Navajo Nation's Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park. You are experiencing one of the most majestic - and most photographed - points on earth. This great valley boasts sandstone masterpieces that tower at heights of 400 to 1,000 feet, framed by scenic clouds casting shadows that graciously roam the desert floor. The angle of the sun accents these graceful formations, providing scenery that is simply spellbinding.
