21The Navajo National Monument

Here you can see a trio of the state’s best-preserved cliff dwellings. The easiest way to see this outstanding place is to just hike the official self-guided Sandal Trail. It’s a paved, 1.3-mile, out-and-back trail that leads to an overlook where you can get a great view of the rugged Betatakin cliff dwelling roughly a quarter of a mile away. There’s also a challenging backcountry hike to the Keet Siel dwelling that actually requires attending a class.
