Road Directions

Just remember you are in the Navajo Nation so watch your speed and for people and animals wondering all over the place including the road. Lots to see there also, the Navajo people are very polite and will help if needed.

Assuming you are going to GC South Rim, I agree with dbob62180. From Durango, take 160/491/160/89/64 into the Park. A fine pleasant drive. You might enjoy a stop at Cameron Trading Post on 89 just one mile north of GC turnoff. They have some long parking spots.

Yes...this is the route you'll want. Save room for a Navajo Taco at the Cameron Trading Post! Awesome.

Thanks Janss I think we will do your rout.

Moved to Roads and Routes from 5th wheels.

64/264W comes out of Farmington, NM. Pretty barren that is why I said 160 would be (a bit) better if he doesn't want interstate driving.

Me too! I love Google maps.. And found out when visiting Costa Rica this year without any cellular coverage that you can actually pre-download an area of Google maps to your phone and use that while you do NOT have any cell/wifi coverage.

Used it that way in CR and it was fabulous, even finding restaurants and 'Farmacy' (different story).

Sorry for off-topic rant. :)

The road will be okay, it will be a slow go in parts. 160W would be better IMO. There is some construction on 64. This will take you to the east entrance of Grand Canyon. Get gas and food at Tuba City - not much more after that! Navajo Nation is dry, FYI.
