Homolovi I: Parking lot is located about 1 mile past the campground and is next to the Little Colorado River. An easy 0.3-mile stroll on an old dirt road leads to the site. Homolovi II: A 0.4-mile paved trail that is wheelchair accessible. The trail allows access to the largest of the park’s archaeological sites containing an estimated 1,200 to 2,000 rooms. It is believed that these pueblos were once home to ancestors of the present-day Hopi people. Much of this activity took place during the 14th century. Hopi migration stories, architecture, pottery styles, and art motifs tie the Hopi to the inhabitants of Homolovi.

Established 1957 Homolovi State Park HOMOLOVI 01/22 In the high grassland of 14th century northern Arizona, an ancient people found a home along the Little Colorado River. These people, the Hisat’sinom (known to archaeologists as the Anasazi), paused in their migrations to till the rich flood plain and sandy slopes before continuing north to join people already living on the mesas, people who are today known as the Hopi. The Hopi people of today still consider Homolovi part of their homeland. They continue to make pilgrimages to these sites, renewing the ties of the people with the land. The Hopi say that the broken pottery and stones are now part of the land and are the trail the Bahana will follow when he returns. In an effort to protect these sites, the Hopi people supported the idea of Homolovi State Park. This idea resulted in the establishment of the park in 1986. The park serves as a center of research for the late migration period of the Hopi from the 1200s to the late 1300s. The park also offers hiking trails, camping, and interpretive exhibits.
