Petrified forest national park


Petrified Forest National Park is in northeastern Arizona. In its south, the Rainbow Forest is full of colorful petrified wood. It’s home to the Rainbow Forest Museum, with its paleontology exhibits and many trail access points. In the park's center are the petroglyphs of Newspaper Rock and the ruined village of Puerco Pueblo. To the north, the Painted Desert Inn, a 1930s adobe building, is a museum with Hopi murals. ― Google Address: Arizona Departments: Painted Desert Inn · Rainbow Forest Museum Hours: Open ⋅ Closes 6 PM · More hours Phone: (928) 524-6228 Established: December 9, 1962 Area: mi² Elevation: 5,436 ft (1,657 m) Management: National Park Service Visitors: 644,922 (in 2018) Named for: Petrified wood found in the park
