Petrified Forest National Park
South Entrance
Approximately 20 miles southeast of Holbrook, AZ on US 180.
The Petrified Forest National Park is a unique area filled with desert landscapes, archaeological, paleontologial, and cultural sites, and most of all, petrified wood. The south entrance to the park is the gateway to the Rainbow Forest Museum and the Big Trees and Long Logs viewing areas. These viewing areas contain some of the largest concentrations of petrified wood in the entire park. We recommend you spend some time wandering around the museum and viewing areas on your own.
