When Monument Valley isn't an option, there is the nearby location of Valley of the Gods. After an impressive drive down the Moki Dugway, you are led to stunning views of buttes and mesas. You can't beat this free thing to do in Utah!
Valley of the Gods is often considered a free alternative to Monument Valley where dispersed camping and drone photography is allowed. Located northeast of Monument Valley, Valley of the Gods is surrounded by beautiful scenery, including Mexican Hat and Goosenecks State Park.
A 17-mile gravel road winds through the valley. While many websites warn that 4-wheel drive is necessary, passenger cars are absolutely safe to take on the road and will experience a few bumps and washboard sections. In general, the road is in great condition, however, be sure to pay attention to the weather as harsh rain and flooding can change the road.
Amazing sandstone buttes, mesa, and towers wait around every corner such as Rooster Butte, Sitting Hen Butte, Castle Butte, and Battleship Rock.
