A very easy, flat, well-worn two mile round-trip stroll following the old unpaved historic entrance road to the park which features stunning views of Montezuma Valley. The Knife-Edge is an out-and-back walk starting and ending at the Morefield Campground. For 50 cents, there are interpretive guides to this trail self-serve at the trailhead, pointing out interesting geological and natural features to study along your walk. A nice, quiet option to end a busy day of cliff-dwelling tours at the park.
