Awe inspiring! Only had about an hour so I went to the Boca Negra Canyon. You can spend as much time as you want and still see some very nice sites.

Great informational stop. Opportunity to learn a lot about ancient history. Saw old artists beautiful work!

We went to 3 out of the 4 parts of the Petroglyph National Monument. We liked Piedras Marcadas best but this canyon had the prettiest single Petroglyph of all sites- the macaw. There are two parts of this canyon: at the first parking site you encounter is the mesa trail and it is steep and doesn't have many petroglyphs but has great views from the top. The second parking lot has two trails. The very short macaw trail has arguably THE best Petroglyph- the macaw. The ancients traded macaws from what is now Mexico. The cliff base trail has lots of petroglyphs. Most of the photos are from the cliff base trail- don't skip it.

Short hike, and challenging (didn't feel comfortable with my younger kids hiking all the way up) but definitely recommend it! There are several petroglyphs to see here. It shouldn't take too long and there are picnic areas too. Don't forget sun block and water!

No, unfortunately. There's wild animals running around all over the place, but your dog may somehow destroy something sacred. :/ It's a people's tolerance thing not a "it may damage something" thing.
I'm not entirely sure. I'd check their website. I saw three dogs while we were there in Oct 18' and they didn't appear to be service dogs; but there's always the chance that they were. I'm sorry I couldn't be more help. Check out Meow Wolf. It's worth the shortish drive to Santa Fe. Get there early though. :)
There are a few trails that meander below and would be okay with anyone who wants to simply enjoy the terrain. There are some unique petroglyphs scattered along the trails. The trails that lead to the top are a bit more strenuous and some boulder-climbing is unavoidable. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone with health concerns or limited mobility. There are bathroom facilities and a shaded sitting area. Well worth the visit.
