"Mesa Verde Point Lookout Trail: 2.1 miles (moderate) The Point Lookout Trail climbs up the iconic Point Lookout, the geological formation that towers above the park entrance. The trail offers views of the San Juan and La Plata Mountains, as well as Mancos and Montezuma Valleys. The hike climbs steep switchbacks up the west side of Point Lookout. Hikers are rewarded with magnificent views, including the historic entrance road snaking its way onto the mesa."
