We were looking for something else to do and I stumbled upon the Palatki Heritage Site and it’s sister site, Honanki Heritage Site near the town of Sedona. These sites are preserved sites of the largest cliff dwellings of the Red Rock Country between 1150 and 1350 AD.
These sites are currently managed by the U.S. Forest Service and Reservations are required for the Palatki Site. We didn’t get to go see either site.They close at 3:00 which was about 15 minutes after we would have gotten to the Honanki Site. We were almost to it and the road (which hadn’t been great the whole time – dirt and gravel and potholes) took a downward slope with large rocks, not gravel and we didn’t want to take the car down it. So, we just looked at them from a distance. They were beautiful! We would have really liked to see them up close but even from a distance they were amazing!!
