Overview

Hosted by local owner operator Dynamic Journey Tours.
This is one of the most surreal views you will ever see. During this tour, we will discuss the many interesting theories of how the wood came to be petrified, as well as the amazing exposed strata of the painted desert known as the Chinle Formation. We will also go over the rich native history in the area, as we walk amongst the ancient lands. There are a couple options for hiking the Badlands in the park.

Before we visit the park, we take lunch in town and drive old Route 66 via Holbrook.

We then take 4 hrs to explore the PFNP and travel North hitting most of the sites. We see 2000 year old Petroglyphs, 216 million year old Crystal trees, and the painted desert/rainbow hills.
