Walatowa Visitor Center

To me, any visitor center should have public working toilets, and this center, although very interesting, does not. And has not for a while. And won’t for the foreseeable future. Neither does the gas station next door to the visitor center. So, be prepared to drive at least one mile up the road to a nearby fishing hole to use the toilet. This is unacceptable. The employees were semi-apologetic because they have no power nor authority to fix this issue. If you are walking the 1 1/2 mile Red Rock Trail, (5 stars BTW), there aren’t any toilets there either. Well worth the visit, but use toilets before arriving to Walatowa Visitor Center to start the Red Rock Trail hike.

Lovely staff who were very friendly and helpful, providing information and good conversation. The hummingbird cafe attached to the visitor center has EXCELLENT coffee, matcha, and nachos. Perfect refreshments after the Walatowa Slot Canyon hike. (We paid $12/person to hike and it was very worth it)

Such a wonderful experience came into purchase a pass for the canyon they were very friendly my twins wrist ban broke she gave me another one we also walked around the museum inside I took pictures by accident but let them know and deleted them after I read the sign to not take pictures felt so bad I missed the sign. :) After I and the twins walked across the street to the canyon, it was breathtaking the hole hike was exciting!

A great experience and we got to learn a little bit about the culture of the Indians. We came during a time when they were dancing for the visitors. I think we came at a time when they were doing some kind of celebration for their young ones. We felt very welcome and would love to return one day.

Really cool that they are open 7 days a week. Visited on Sunday and was lucky to be able to visit museum inside visitors center. Very informative. Unfortunate no picture/video allowed in the museum. Hiking pass can be purchased here ($12/daily pass)

Very beautiful visitor center with very friendly staffs! They showed us the trail and so friendly with us tourists! You can buy trail tickets onsite! I believe it was 12$ per person

Stopped here and it has great selection of items to buy and a free museum that is informative. There is a hike across the street that is $3 per person. The hike is about 1.5 miles and so beautiful with the red rocks. It is a must-do.

I liked it! I'll have to check out the trail some time, but the visitor center was nice. I wish the museum extended past 2008 and the mugs available for sale weren't what I hoped for. Bathroom was very clean, but the stall was out of order.
