Amerind Museum & Texas Canyon Nature Preserve
History
Research museum focused on Southwestern Indigenous archaeology and ethnology, set within Texas Canyon's striking boulder landscape — covers Native American history and desert ecology.
What families say
Families love this spot for its rich collection of native artifacts, pottery, and jewelry paired with genuinely scenic hiking trails through Texas Canyon's boulders—plan on separate admission for trails (about $12/person, kids 10 and under free) versus the museum/gallery. Bring a picnic lunch, as several reviewers enjoyed the shaded picnic area and spotted local birds; note that photos aren't allowed inside the museum, so save the camera for the trails. Go early in the day if you want time for both the exhibits and a hike, since one reviewer arrived late and only managed the trail.
