    The best and typical view is from up here at the Monument Valley Visitor Center, right next to it is the hotel "The View" with probably the most incredible view from the balcony...of West Mitten, East Mitten and Merrick Butte.

      The Monument Valley is one of the most iconic views if it comes to Wild West themes. This is the trailhead for the Wildcat Loop Trail if you want to take a short hike into this unique landscape around the red sandstone rock formations.

        We experience the impressive Monument Valley on a 1.5-hour tour. We are accompanied by an experienced Navajo guide who leads us through the valley and introduces us to the diverse Native American culture. During several photo stops we have the opportunity to take a look at the monumental rock formations.

        The terrain of Monument Valley is ancient, resilient and breathtakingly beautiful. This distinctive landscape was created by the erosion of the sandstone deposits of the Rocky Mountains and geological uplift and was further shaped over many centuries by the relentless forces of wind and water.

        Contrary to what some may assume, Monument Valley is not a national park but a tribal park as it lies within the boundaries of the Navajo Nation. The tribal park designation is important to preserve its unique heritage and geological wonders.
