My wife and I walked that loop in 9/2014 and really enjoyed it. Then in May 2016, my wife and our grandson took the walking tour. I stayed in at the Hilton Inn in White Rock nursing a cold, so I would feel better a couple days later when we rode the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic. Going out there again this May with our grand-daughter but she wants to visit Mesa Verde, so we will skip Bandelier this year.
Glad I got to see this on video ... whom ever climbed the ladder is a very brave soul. LOL Most thanks from this non climbing chicken. Love you and the video ! Big Hugs !
Go up to the San Miguel ruins out on the mesa if you really want to see something. The Pueblos are still using the Stone Lions for ceremonies. Get into Bandelier the back way, through Cochiti and the Santa Fe Natl. Forest (Jemez Mtns. Unit).
so I loved going here as well. My grandson was probably 4 when my mom, son, and I took him. Has anyone gotton pics that have anything paranormal in them?
There are so many similarities between the cave dwellings and pictographs of this site and Petra, Jordan (referring to the petroglyph that looks like stairs.) Hmmm...How did that happen?
Modern plasma physicists are identifying some of the pictographs of diverse cultures not as "religious symbols" at all, but very possibly depictions of the plasma-electrical phenomena in an atmosphere being bombarded by a massive CME. That would explain why cultures who may not have had any contact with each other drew the same geometric shapes. They were describing natural catastrophic phenomena, not making religious statements.
They've closed the road from NM4 to personal vehicles due to increased risk of wildfire, but there is a free shuttle from the White Rock Visitor Center.
There are a lot of very narrow, stone stairways, and there are the steep wooden ladders up into the caves. The path you walk however, is well maintained and could likely support a pretty rugged electric wheelchair.
It is a small museum on the right hand portion of the visitor center. To the left is the gift shop and the theatre showing the movie depicted here. Was just there yesterday but we missed the museum as well because we went directly to the left for the movie and then out to the trail. Wasn’t even aware we’d missed this until now. Will definitely check that out next time. This place was absolutely breathtaking & so sacred. I can hardly believe they allow visitors to climb the ladders up into actual caves. Was hoping to find a PBS type documentary about this area and the history it’s former inhabitants.
Breathless and eye opening

What is the situation for handicapped? We have an electric wheelchair , can we drive all the way in and use some of the trail?

What museum is in the first 7ish minutes?

Just a reminder any one who is even a little afraid of heights never climb the 140 foot ladders they are worse than you think
