Description:

"Palatki" is the Hopi word for "red house" which perfectly describes this archaeological site of blush-colored sandstone cliff dwellings. These structures with their pictographs and petroglyphs date back to the 1100s to 1400s. You have your choice of three trails: one to the Sinagua dwellings, one to a viewpoint of the dwellings, and another to the artwork of the native cultures that once inhabited the area. Each trail is about a quarter of a mile. The Palatki Heritage Site is open every day from 9:30 to 3 except Thanksgiving and Christmas.
