If you’re looking for a trail that allows you to experience the beauty and history of the area, then check out the Aztec Butte Trail. This scenic trail takes you to two rocky buttes that provide breathtaking views and access to granaries that were built by the Ancestral Puebloan people. Completing the full trail requires some easy rock scrambling. 

The area can be a little confusing to navigate, but there are signs and cairns along the trail to guide the way. I also recommend having a map of the hike downloaded. Please don’t build new cairns, or touch, enter, or damage the granaries, which are protected by federal law. Make sure to read the information at the trailhead for more information.
