Great place for visiting and walking. The canyon is very impressive. But we didn't see any of the wild horses.

Take your time. Very scenic views of the canyons and byways. The wild horses were scarce and far away but very nice to see.

Absolutely beautiful!!! The visitors center was great, the mustang center was a great stop. We saw the mustangs and some other wildlife in the canyon. Loved the beautiful sites!! The teepee ring was an interest spot also.

Very nice, you want away from it all this is your destination. Affordable, kid friendly, lots to do, bring your dirt bike or side by side. I camped only, it was quiet and some wildlife. I visited Sept 1 and it got plenty chilly in my tent so prepare.
