The site, in the San Juan National Forest, is surrounded by the Southern Ute Indian Reservation. Home to the ancestors of the modern Pueblo Indians 1,000 years ago, Chimney Rock is of great spiritual significance to these tribes. As visitors explore the remains of the ancestral Puebloan village atop a mesa, they see spectacular panoramas, birds of prey and other wildlife, and colorful wildflowers. Guided tours include the Pueblo and Kiva trails. Self-guiding audio tours and several night sky viewing programs also are available.

Guided tours average 2.5 hours and include 1 mile of hiking with a 200-foot elevation gain. Water, sturdy shoes, hats and sunscreen are advised.
