Monument Valley Travel Information
Monument Valley is an area of free standing sandstone rock forms that
rise majestically from the desert floor. Up to 1,000 feet tall, they
create a truly magical desert landscape. The beauty of the area is a
fact well documented by the numerous Western movies and television
commercials for which Monument Valley has served as a backdrop. (So
whether or not you were aware of it, you have very likely already seen
Monument Valley.) Monument Valley is located along the Utah/Arizona
border towards the southeast corner of Utah. It is just east of Hwy.
163, about 22 miles southwest of Mexican Hat, Utah and 24 miles north
of Kayenta, Arizona. View
