Located in southern Colorado, Mesa Verde National Park is home to some of the best-preserved ancestral Pueblo sites in the nation. Here you will find dramatic cliff dwellings built into the sides of steep mountainsides and underground "kivas," ancient circular rooms made of stone. The UNESCO World Heritage Site features more than 4,700 archeological sites you can hike, walk through, climb, and drive past. Impressive highlights include the massive Cliff Palace and Balcony House, which you can only access by climbing a high ladder and scrambling through a narrow cave.
