5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

Mesa Verde National Park is the place to go to learn about the ancient Indian culture and to appreciate the beauty of nature.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

The overall experience was wonderful. The quiet, hearing nothing but the wind in many parts of the park feels so refreshing.

4/5 - Good

Dreamer

Well managed park. Easy access on well maintained roads to vista points.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Consider more sustainable methods for keeping visitor trash to a minimum. Example is the Far View Terrace Cafe; for every waffle made, one plastic cup is used for the batter then thrown away. All beverages were served in non-reusable cups.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

This is a wonderful park but you must stop at the visitor's center to get tickets to visit the cliff dwellings. Expect that you won't get your first choice of time and plan to be in the park longer than you originally planned.
