Petrified Forest National Park is an American national park in northeastern Arizona. It got its name for its large deposits of petrified wood. Petrified wood is the name given to a particular type of fossilized wood. Petrifaction results from a tree or tree-like plant being replaced by stone via a mineralization process that often includes permineralization and replacement. This park covers 346 square miles, and the northern parts were declared a national monument in 1906 and a national park in 1962. Petrified Forest is known for its fossil remains containing the fossil logs that are part of the widespread and colorful Chinle Formation.
This complex acts as the park's headquarter administration office, visitor and resident service, and employee housing. Take a stop for historical architecture, information, book store, gift shop, and food.
This place functions as a museum now. Where you find inside highlighting the building's history, Route 66, and the Civilian Conservation Corps, it was earlier built with petrified wood and later underwent many changes.
This place is the perfect spot to enjoy the fascinating views of the painted desert and several outlook areas.
It is named an archeologist site whose name doesn't have to do anything with the site as it's neither newspaper nor a single rock. This place has many markings and writings which are impossible to read.
Other than the above places, many others, like Route 66 Alignment, Jasper Forest, Agate Bridge, Rainbow Forest Museum, and Giant Logs Trail, keep going. But other than these places you can even enjoy additional activities.
Hiking here is an off-trail path that allows you to discover the rarely visited sites. Many destinations can be found without the trail or course, but others need road-finding skills.
You can follow the trail to visit the archeological highlights, the natural environment, and the famous petrified logs.
Here they also have a lot of guided tours where you join a ranger, scientist, volunteer, reactor, or other field experts.
