Review:
There are six prehistoric ruins along the Colorado and Utah state line, which together make up Hovenweep National Monument. These ancient dwellings mark the sites where entire villages once stood. They date back to the 13th century AD, and were once the home of more than 2500 people. The structures at Hovenweep National Monument vary from ancient stone and brick walls to tall towers that balance precariously on top of boulders and rock formations. Visitors can explore Hovenweep on foot or by car, and even camp near the ancient dwellings for a full experience.
