About Mexican Hat
Set along the San Juan River just north of Monument Valley, Mexican Hat is a tiny desert outpost named after the distinctive sombrero-shaped rock balancing nearby. Life here revolves around the red rock landscape, with local boat launches drawing river runners and nearby Goosenecks State Park offering dramatic canyon views. With only a handful of residents and services along Highway 163, it offers an exceptionally quiet, rugged lifestyle surrounded by wide-open southwestern scenery.
