Summary[edit]

Description If you visit Mesa Verde, you must visit Spruce Tree House on Chapin Mesa. Spruce Tree House is Mesa Verde National Park's best-preserved and third largest cliff dwelling. It is the largest cliff dwelling visitors are allowed to visit without a formal tour ticket. Spruce Tree House was constructed between A.D. 1211 and A.D. 1278. The dwelling contains 130 rooms and 8 kivas built into a natural alcove. It is thought to have been home to about 60 to 80 people. It can be reached on a 1/2 mile round trip hike with a 100-ft descent and ascent on a winding path. It is open from 8:30 until 6:30 during peak season.
