In Arizona, Holidays on the theme of Amerindian culture

Phoenix is home to the largest and most beautiful museum of Native American art and culture, the Heard Museum. It is dedicated to preserving the culture and heritage of the Amerindians of the southwestern states of the United States.

We discover both the traditional know-how of the Indian nations and the art of today’s Amerindians who are reclaiming their heritage. 1h30 north of Phoenix, Montezuma Castle is a 12th century cave village occupied by the Hohokam and Sinagua Indians.

It can be visited on foot, alone or with a Ranger, during a one-kilometre walk that allows you to discover the area from the base of the cliffs.

In Chinle, the Chelly Canyon, in northeastern Arizona, is one of the most emblematic sites of Native American culture.

To immerse yourself in the local culture, visitors can opt for a hike in the canyon with a ranger, a horseback ride or a 4×4 ride with a Navajo guide.
