Where is Monument Valley

Located within the Navajo Indian Reservation, near the town of Goulding, Monument Valley Park can be viewed and enjoyed from several different vantage points.

The only main road through the valley is US 163 connecting Kayenta, AZ with US 191 in Utah.

Highlights along the Road

As the main road goes through the mesas at Monument Pass, you can see the rock formations from a closer perspective.

Within the actual boundaries of the park visitors have a better opportunity to appreciate more of the landscape. Behind the Mitchell and Wetherill Mesas the views are spectacular, so it pays to visit the valley in more than one area. Reach the park via a short side road opposite the turn-off to Goulding. Head for the visitor center for the best views. When you get there, look for the East and West Mitten Buttes, and Merrick Butte.
