Puye Cliff Dwellings Tour

Puye Cliff Dwellings Tour is at SR 30 and Santa Clara Canyon Rd. Located atop the Pajarito Plateau at an elevation of nearly 7,000 feet is the ancestral home of the Santa Clara Pueblo people. This was once a multi-story complex built around a large central plaza. The southern portion contained 173 rooms on the ground floor. Guided tours offer both breathtaking views and an in-depth cultural and spiritual appreciation of pueblo life. The Harvey House displays pueblo-related exhibits, and during the summer local artisans display their work.

The tour requires walking on steep slopes at a high elevation. Allow 15 minutes to drive from the Welcome Center to the tour site.

Guided tours are available. Picnicking is permitted. Time: Allow 1 hour minimum.
