Petrified Forest National Park
Petrified Forest is best known for its Triassic fossils. It’s like having two parks in one, an ecosystem over 200 million years old with plants and animals now represented in the surreal landscape of the Painted Desert.
About a three and a half hour drive northeast, this destination is quite unique. Petrified Forest National Park stretches across 200,000 acres and is home to one of the largest concentrations of petrified wood in the world. Travelers recommend seeing the Painted Desert, learning the park’s geography at the Rainbow Forest Museum and hiking through the park’s scenic trails.
