Honanki Heritage Site

You park and go to the attendant. It’s five dollars to get in and it’s a 30 minute walk. It’s so beautiful so serene so unbelievable. It is so peaceful and it speaks for itself. Very beautiful place and you can feel the ancient history behind it all. highly recommend going to see it. You will hit some bumpy roads going there before you get there, but it’s so worth it!

We hiked here after touring the Palatki Heritage Site. It was nice to do the tour 20 minutes away first to really understand what we were seeing during our experience at Honanki. We were greeted by an attendant that gave us a brief rundown of the site. There were some signs that also guided our study. The loop is less than a 1/2 hr walk and mostly flat. There is one section that breaks off but essentially you are seeing the same thing on both levels. I wish we had known this because we thought we would see 2 different places and ended up going around the entire site twice to follow the other loop. The dwellings were easily accessible for viewing with pictographs and petroglyphs. It is very historic, but unfortunately disrespected in years past by people who have defaced and added graffiti to this historic site. Overall, still worth seeing in combination with Palatki.

We visited here, via Pink Jeep Tours and loved it. Our guide, Cliff, knew so much about the area. It was a fascinating tour!

Give me a break!!! We drive all the way out today to find you are closed at a little after 2pm. Your gov’t truck parked outside and you hung a closed sign due to heat!!! Are you kidding, it’s Arizona. You could have at least driven back to the intersections where the arrows pointed us in your direction and hung a CLOSED sign! Unbelievable No stars for you Had to give you one so I could write a review

Was able to visit this site unguided by taking our Yukon. Road was a little bumpy at times but not too bad. There was at least one turn off we missed at first. It’s a dirt road. We wouldn’t have wanted to drive it in an open Jeep, you’d be covered in dust. Have to make sure you get there before 3 when they close. There is a dirt parking lot with a pay envelope station so have cash. We visited in May in 2024, it wasn’t too hot or very busy at the time. Short dirt trail to walk to the site was not very difficult, some older folk used walking sticks. It was pretty cool to see the ruins so up close and some petroglyphs. The sign explains how different ages of cultures have used it. Glad we visited!

This was a much better experience than I expected. There is so much to explore on the way but also a very impressive site to visit. A lot of places ro takes great pictures.

Tough getting here, took a ATV. A car might make it in good weather. It’s a short nice hike to see a nice piece of history.

This is fun! It’s a heck of a drive out here but it’s cute seeing the old dwellings in Sedona.
