Make the Most of Your Time

Visiting Tuzigoot National Monument, which includes the Tavasci Marsh, Pueblo Trail, and museum, requires an entrance fee. Everyone must check in at the vistor center before exploring the park. The day before Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and New Year's Eve the park closes early at 1:45 pm. The park is closed on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day. Check park hours before visiting. The Pueblo Trail takes about 30-45 minutes to hike. Give yourself at least two hours to complete the Tavasci Marsh Trail.

Your receipt from Tuzigoot National Monument also gets you entrance into Montezuma Castle National Monument for 7 days.

Check the alerts page for current conditions and closures.

A self-guided, 0.3 mile loop trail leads you around and through the Tuzigoot pueblo, a 110-room village built about 1000 years ago. The Pueblo Trail also offers outstanding views of the Verde River and the Verde Valley. Another 0.5 mile trail (1 mile round trip), takes you to an overlook of Tavasci Marsh. While the Marsh Overlook Trail is accessible to wheelchairs and strollers, the Pueblo Trail has some steep grades that are not suitable for wheelchairs and may be difficult for people with balance or mobility issues.

Pets are welcome on the park's trails, but must be on a leash no more than six feet at all times. Always clean up after your pet. Pets are not permitted inside the visitor center except during check-in. Never leave your pets in the car. Service animals, dogs that are specially trained to assist people with disabilities, are welcome anywhere visitors can go. Emotional support animals are not service animals.
