Site Summary: One of the few sites where pictographs are open to public viewing, the Palatki and Honanki Ruins site is not well known, but well worth the visit!

The site also has well preserved but fragile cliff dwellings nearby.

Getting There:
    From Sedona: Take 89A south from the "Y" (away from Oak Creek Canyon). About 1/2 mile south of Milemarker 365, at a group of mailboxes, turn right onto a dirt road (Forest Road 525 to Forest Road 795; passable for all cars when dry), and drive 8 miles to Palatki and the parking lot.
