There are no camping facilities within the park. Motels, stores, trailer parks, and campgrounds can be found in the nearby towns of Wilcox and Bowie. Another campground is located at Chiricahua National Monument, 25 miles to the southwest.

Hunting is prohibited within the park. So, too, are metal detectors, digging tools, and guns. Keep wheeled vehicles on roads and do not climb on the fragile walls and mounds. Pets must be leashed.
