About Homolovi State Park

Homolovi State Park preserves more than 300 ancestral Puebloan archaeological sites near Winslow. The name comes from a Hopi word meaning place of the little hills. The park serves as a research center for the late migration period of the Hopi, roughly the 1200s to the late 1300s. Visitors can see the sites, use a visitor center and museum, walk historic trails, and camp. The park also has a permanent observatory and hosts monthly star parties. Wildlife viewing and picnic areas are available across its more than 4,000 acres. One archaeological site is temporarily closed after heavy rain caused erosion damage.
