Review & FAQ:

Nestled in the heart of northern New Mexico, the Puye Cliff Dwellings are rich in Native American culture and heritage. The dwellings were formerly inhabited by over 1,500 ancient Santa Clara Pueblo Indians from the 900s to 1500s. Several tours are available to explore different aspects of the historic landmark.

The Puye Cliff Dwellings Tour uncovers the ancient community’s everyday life with viewings of the masonry dwellings, cave dwellings, and ancient petroglyph drawings. On the other hand, the Mesa Top Tour explores the ceremonial kiva structure and central plaza. Visitors may also join the Roadrunner Trail tour, which begins with a 100-yard hike to the face of the cliff followed by viewings of the cliff dwellings. Finally, the Adventure Tour combines all three tours for a comprehensive excursion through the ruins.
