Up Arizona » Canyon de Chelly National Monument » 1-South Rim Slideshow

Canyon de Chelly can be explored from the rim following both North Rim Drive and South Rim Drive. Ancient ruins and geologic structures are visible, but in the distance, from turnoffs on each of these routes. We entered the park late afternoon and decided to explore the South Rim first. This drive (37 miles round trip) offers panoramic views of the canyon, the Defiance Plateau, and the Chuska Mountains to the northeast.
