Hungo Pavi

Hungo Pavi (crooked nose or reed spring village) is an unexcavated Great House containing over 150 rooms, a great kiva, and an enclosed plaza. It is a good example of what Chacoan sites look like without excavations - covered with a protective blanket of wind-blown sand and native vegetation.

The name may be related to the Hopi Village on Second Mesa, Shungopavi. A remarkable stairway is visible in the cliff behind and to the east, linking Hungo Pavi to the roads on the northern side of Chaco Canyon.

Directions

Hungo Pavi is located 2 miles from the visitor center on the Canyon Loop Drive.
