Best Overlooks

Petrified Forest National Park's overlooks provide access to the colorful Chinle Formation and vast expanses of the Painted Desert. These viewpoints showcase distinct geological features, including the striped badlands of Blue Mesa, the concentrated petrified logs of Jasper Forest, and the 650 petroglyphs at Newspaper Rock. Visitors can observe the park's transition from the high-altitude northern desert to the southern fossil-rich plains, with many sites featuring historic architecture and paved accessibility.
