Join a park ranger on a hike through history! Travel 12,000 years back in time to discover the ingenuity of the people of the past and how Valles Caldera remains a place that inspires generation after generation.

This will be a 2-mile hike on relatively flat ground. Please wear footwear suitable for gravel hiking, and bring snowshoes (if applicable), ice cleats (if applicable), layers, gloves, head coverings, and water.

Registration is not required. Meet at the picnic area in front of the Ranger Station, located about 4 miles down the park road from the main entrance gate.
