Cliff Dwellings Trail | Gila Cliff Dwellings From Trail |
The trail leading to the cliff dwellings is a 1 mile loop trail. There is a viewpoint for the dwellings at the 1/4 mile mark that is easy to get to. I saw a lady in a knee brace do it. The trail gets pretty steep and rocky after that point. If you climb up into the dwellings you will ahve to climb down a wooden ladder or backtrack. |
