Beautiful historic site, a must visit. Our family enjoyed it. The off road route to it is super fun as well. Bring a 4x4 and enjoy the views and the ruins!Full review by derezago

Fascinating up close views of petroglyphs and dwellings from pre-Colombian America. Involves walking on rough terrain but accessible to anyone who ambulates without aids. Full review by AtlantaRichard
Hello, We are visiting the Sedona area for the first time next month. We will be in the area for 5 days and hope to hike and hit the area highlights. I am trying to decide if the ruins in this area should be included. We spent time exploring Mesa Verde 2 summers ago, including ranger led hikes to several of the cliff dwellings. I am wondering how these ruins compare and if my kids will appreciate them as much as the experience at Mesa Verde. Any advice will be helpful. Thank you.

These ruins are nothing like Mesa Verde as far as the number of dwellings. There are only, say, about 15-20 chambers or rooms. These are a little more remote, but that is part of the fun, is renting a 4-wheeled vehicle and getting here. There are no "ranger led tours" at Honanki, but is rather self guided. What I find more interesting about Honanki is that you hike right up to them yourself, and the number of petroglyphs that you can see. There are many drawings on the walls of the rock formation where these dwellings are located. And, unlike one TripAdvisor reviewer wrote, they are not "free" as you are suppose to buy a Red Rock Pass to have displayed on your vehicle, which is very cheap for the week, like $15.00 bucks. Again, nothing like Mesa Verde, but unique nonetheless and offers up close views of the ancient art and drawings.
I don’t know for sure, but I have not seen dogs in several visits to Honanki. Moreover, check before you go. I believe it was closed last week due to COVID crisis, AZ is starting to …
