The Bandelier National Monument Pueblo Loop Trail Guide explores more than 10,000 years of human history in Frijoles Canyon. Early nomadic hunters once traveled through this landscape in search of large game. Permanent settlement later peaked around 1350 CE with the growth of ancestral Pueblo communities. The Pueblo Loop Trail passes through many of these important cultural sites.
The Bandelier National Monument Pueblo Loop Trail Guide explains 21 points of interest along the 1.4-mile trail. Visitors can explore kivas, Tyuonyi Pueblo, cliff dwellings, and volcanic landscapes along the route. The trail begins with a paved path before continuing to steeper stairs near Long House and the cavates. The guide provides visitors with interesting and important historical, archaeological, and geological context during their hike. Plus, it makes the perfect keepsake to remember your trip, with beautiful photography and illustrations.
