Canyon De Chelly
National Monument
Welcome!
For nearly five thousand years, people have lived in these canyons. No one has lived uninterrupted for so long on the Colorado Plateau. Stories emerge from their Tsegi, their homes and images. Today, Navajo live here, and farm the canyon lands. The park and Navajo Nation together manage the land’s resources.

Stories from all parks
Our public lands are our public commons. They belong to all of us as part of our natural and cultural heritage. They remind us of a larger world that has existed long before the arrival of humans and will survive long after we are gone. –Terry Tempest Williams, Author & Conservationist
