If gorgeous scenery, jaw-dropping canyons, and ancient cliff dwellings are your thing, then be sure to start off in Flagstaff at this national monument. Walnut Canyon has an incredible way of taking you back in time and putting you in the shoes of those who lived in these parts of the country long ago. The first inhabitants of the canyon are known as the Sinagua, coming from the Spanish name for the region meaning "mountains without water.” They lived here from around A.D. 600 until 1400, building their homes into the cliffs that would remain long after they were gone. Can you imagine the ways that they managed to survive? Growing food? Building shelter? Be sure to set aside at least a couple of hours to hike around the park, and prepare to walk plenty of steps while you're there to get the full historical and scenic experience!
