Approach: There is only one main road through Monument Valley, US 163, which links Kayenta, AZ with US 191 in Utah. The stretch approaching the AZ/UT border from the north gives the most famous image of the valley, and possibly of the whole Southwest - a long straight empty road leads across flat desert towards the 1,000 foot high stark red cliffs on the horizon, curving away just in front.
The way most people see Monument Valley is to drive from Kayenta, Arizona to Mexican Hat, Utah. The drive goes right through the heat of Monument Valley and affords many places to pull off the road an take photos. In my opinion some of the best view points are just across the border in Utah.
