Every year, magnificent rock formations and gorgeous gorges draw millions of tourists to the western United States. Some travelers seek spectacular photo ops at these landmarks, while others simply wish to experience the breathtaking views in person. Grand Canyon National Park may be the country’s most well-known destination for rock-spotting, but it’s not the only beautiful park that welcomes adventurers. If you explore outside the National Park System, you’ll find incredible sightseeing locations like those at the Navajo Nation Tribal Parks.
Overseen by Navajo Nation Parks & Recreation, the five Navajo Tribal Parks include Monument Valley, Lake Powell, Tseyi Dine’ Heritage Area – Canyon de Chelly, Four Corners Monument, and Little Colorado River Gorge.
