Part of Bandolier natl. park. walk in the footsteps of the ancient people, native to this area. find broken pot shards (but leave them where they are), and see the petroglyphs and caves.
Such beauty. Easy hike. Petroglyphs. Very few people ever there. Pick up the little paper guide booklet at the entry

1.5 mile walk along a mesa, viewing caves, petroglyphs and the Ancestral Pueblo village of Tsankawi. Ladders are a required part of this trail.

Can be slippery in the winter time when snows on the ground and extremely hot in the summertime and the sun is at full height. There is a fee but it can also be applied to Bandelier national Monument.
