About Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site

Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site sits in Ganado on the Navajo Nation in Arizona. The trading post has bought and sold goods and Native American art since 1878, and its dim, creaking interior still feels like a frontier mercantile. Visitors can browse the store for handmade rugs, jewelry, arts and crafts, groceries, and souvenirs, and can watch artists at work. The grounds include the Hubbell family home, a historic barn, farm animals, and old farm equipment. The visitor center offers a park map, exhibits on the trading post and the importance of sheep and weaving to the Navajo people, and a guest loom for trying weaving. Free ranger-led tours of the family home are offered when staff are available.
