Located on Sunset Crater Road, Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument is the home of a 900-year-old cinder cone. From the Visitor Center there are several trails and areas in the park that visitors can explore such as the Cinder Hills Overlook, which has stunning views, the one-mile Lava Flow Trail, the steep one-mile Lenox Crater Trail, and the .2-mile Aa Flow Trail.

Visitors can also take a seven-mile hike to O’Leary Peak. In order to protect the fragile landscape, backcountry hiking is not permitted. There are several programs such as school field trips, a Junior Ranger Program, and the WebRangers available.
