Here you can take the giant petrified wood path (giant log trail). Other paths lead you to meet the "Long Logs" and discover the house of Agate.
You also have the opportunity to visit an excellent museum and its well-stocked store.

The Rainbow Forest was the center of the former Petrified Forest that was established in 1906. The building that you can visit today is the replacement of a primitive wood and tar paper shack. There are interesting exhibits of the Late Triassic era. You can learn about the petrified wood and animal that roamed this area some million years ago.
