Mesa Verde National Park

2

Balcony House

Located on the Cliff Palace Loop, Balcony House is one of the more adventurous of the cliff house tours as it requires climbing multiple ladders and even squeezing through tight passageways. The best non-tour view of Balcony House is from the Soda Creek Overlook Trail, also located on the Cliff Palace Loop Road. To see inside Balcony House, you must have a ticket for the Ranger-guided tour.

3

Chapin Mesa Archeological Museum

This museum has a superb collection of items and exhibitions and provides an excellent opportunity to experience more of the culture, beyond just seeing the ruins.

4

Cliff Palace

Perhaps the most famous of all the cliff dwellings in Mesa Verde, Cliff Palace was first re-found by rancher Richard Wetherill, though he'd received tips of its existence from a local Ute member. It is the largest cliff dwelling in North America with 151 rooms and 23 kivas. Getting into Cliff Palace requires a pre-purchased ticket and the tour is considered Ranger-assisted. Your timed visit is supervised by a ranger who provides information, but you are somewhat allowed to self-explore.

5

Spruce Tree House

Spruce Tree House is located at the same access area as the museum and other park services. Though it is not as large as Cliff Palace, this dwelling is considered the best preserved. It is easily appreciated and photographed from the viewpoint behind the museum. Unfortunately due to some rock falls and destabilization, it is not possible to visit inside the Spruce Tree House for an indefinite time moving forward. There are also 2 popular but somewhat strenuous hiking trails that leave from this location; Petroglyph Point Trail - which as the name suggests, leads to a petroglyph panel, and the Spruce Canyon Trail. Expect each of these hikes to take approx 2 hours.

6

Square Tower House

The unique 4 story tall tower structure makes Square Tower House one of the most photogenic sites in the park. Square Tower is accessible on a ranger-led tour and pre-purchase of tickets is mandatory, using the same procedure as other cliff dwelling tours. If you do not have a tour booking, the best viewing location is along the Mesa Top Loop Drive.

7

Step House

Step House is the best opportunity in Mesa Verde to be able to get up-close and personal with a cliff dwelling, but does not require a that you join a ranger-led tour, and that you do not need tickets to see. Step House is located at the end point of the excellent drive along Wetherill Mesa Road. The bonus of visiting Step House is the many outstanding views along the 20 minute each way drive.

8

Sun Temple

Sun Temple was one of the last mesa-top pueblos built at Mesa Verde. The distinction is that it is built on the land, and not in a cliff alcove - almost like a regular building!

Национальный парк Меса-Верде

Поскольку аудиогиды воспроизводят комментарии в зависимости от вашего местоположения GPS, вы можете создать свой собственный маршрут по маршруту (маршрутам) тура, который соответствует вашим интересам и расписанию. Или вы можете воспользоваться нашими планировщиками поездок, чтобы получить предложения по полудневным, полным или многодневным маршрутам. Некоторые из многих основных моментов перечислены ниже

26

Балконный дом

Balcony House, расположенный на петле Cliff Palace Loop, является одним из самых авантюрных туров по скальным домам, поскольку он требует подъема по нескольким лестницам и даже протискивания через узкие проходы. Лучший вид на Balcony House без экскурсий открывается с тропы Soda Creek Overlook Trail, также расположенной на Cliff Palace Loop Road. Чтобы заглянуть внутрь Balcony House, у вас должен быть билет на экскурсию с рейнджером.

27

Археологический музей Чапин Меса

Этот музей имеет превосходную коллекцию предметов и выставок и предоставляет прекрасную возможность познакомиться с культурой, а не просто увидеть руины.

28

Клифф Палас

Возможно, самое известное из всех скальных жилищ в Меса-Верде, Cliff Palace был впервые заново обнаружен владельцем ранчо Ричардом Уэзериллом, хотя он получил информацию о его существовании от местного члена Юта. Это самое большое скалистое жилище в Северной Америке со 151 комнатой и 23 кивами. Чтобы попасть в Cliff Palace, требуется заранее купленный билет, и тур считается с участием рейнджеров. Ваш запланированный визит контролируется рейнджером, который предоставляет информацию, но вам в некоторой степени разрешено исследовать себя.

29

Дом из ели

Spruce Tree House расположен в той же зоне доступа, что и музей и другие службы парка. Хотя он не такой большой, как Cliff Palace, это жилище считается наиболее хорошо сохранившимся. Его легко оценить и сфотографировать со смотровой площадки за музеем. К сожалению, из-за некоторых камнепадов и дестабилизации невозможно посетить дом на еловом дереве в течение неопределенного времени. Есть также 2 популярных, но несколько напряженных пешеходных маршрута, которые выходят из этого места; Тропа Петроглиф-Пойнт, которая, как следует из названия, ведет к панели с петроглифами и тропе Елового каньона. Ожидайте, что каждый из этих походов займет около 2 часов.

30

Дом с квадратной башней

Уникальная 4-этажная башня делает Square Tower House одним из самых фотогеничных мест в парке. Квадратная башня доступна во время тура под руководством рейнджера, и предварительная покупка билетов является обязательной, используя ту же процедуру, что и другие туры по жилищам в скалах. Если у вас нет бронирования тура, лучшее место для просмотра — вдоль Mesa Top Loop Drive.

31

Шаг Хаус

Step House - это лучшая возможность в Меса-Верде, чтобы иметь возможность поближе познакомиться с жилищем в скале, но не требует, чтобы вы присоединились к туру под руководством рейнджера, и вам не нужны билеты, чтобы увидеть. Step House расположен в конечной точке прекрасной дороги по Wetherill Mesa Road. Преимуществом посещения Step House является множество замечательных видов на 20-минутной дороге в каждую сторону.

32

Храм Солнца

Храм Солнца был одним из последних пуэбло на вершине горы, построенных в Меса-Верде. Отличие в том, что он построен на земле, а не в нише скалы — почти как обычное здание!

Step House is the best opportunity in Mesa Verde to be able to get up-close and personal with a cliff dwelling, but does not require a that you join a ranger-led tour, and that you do not need tickets to see. Step House is located at the end point of the excellent drive along Wetherill Mesa Road. The bonus of visiting Step House is the many outstanding views along the 20 minute each way drive.

Sun Temple

Sun Temple was one of the last mesa-top pueblos built at Mesa Verde. The distinction is that it is built on the land, and not in a cliff alcove - almost like a regular building!

Mesa Verde National Park

As the audio guides play commentary based on your gps location, you can create your own itinerary along the tour route(s) to match your interests and schedule. Or you can use our trip planners for our suggestions on half, full or multi-day itineraries. Some of the many highlights are listed below

90

Balcony House

Located on the Cliff Palace Loop, Balcony House is one of the more adventurous of the cliff house tours as it requires climbing multiple ladders and even squeezing through tight passageways. The best non-tour view of Balcony House is from the Soda Creek Overlook Trail, also located on the Cliff Palace Loop Road. To see inside Balcony House, you must have a ticket for the Ranger-guided tour.

91

Chapin Mesa Archeological Museum

This museum has a superb collection of items and exhibitions and provides an excellent opportunity to experience more of the culture, beyond just seeing the ruins.

92

Cliff Palace

Perhaps the most famous of all the cliff dwellings in Mesa Verde, Cliff Palace was first re-found by rancher Richard Wetherill, though he'd received tips of its existence from a local Ute member. It is the largest cliff dwelling in North America with 151 rooms and 23 kivas. Getting into Cliff Palace requires a pre-purchased ticket and the tour is considered Ranger-assisted. Your timed visit is supervised by a ranger who provides information, but you are somewhat allowed to self-explore.

93

Spruce Tree House

Spruce Tree House is located at the same access area as the museum and other park services. Though it is not as large as Cliff Palace, this dwelling is considered the best preserved. It is easily appreciated and photographed from the viewpoint behind the museum. Unfortunately due to some rock falls and destabilization, it is not possible to visit inside the Spruce Tree House for an indefinite time moving forward. There are also 2 popular but somewhat strenuous hiking trails that leave from this location; Petroglyph Point Trail - which as the name suggests, leads to a petroglyph panel, and the Spruce Canyon Trail. Expect each of these hikes to take approx 2 hours.
