Virtual Reality Tours

The Mesa Prieta Petroglyph Project proudly presents or Virtual Tours series. In these online tours, you we be able to explore the Mesa as never before, from the comforts of your own home. Each of these tours will cover a unique perspective on a theme about the petroglyphs, archaeology, and history of Mesa Prieta. Each "stop" includes a narrative about the petroglyphs shown to accompany a virtual reality (VR) enabled photograph or model. For a more immersive experience, you can view these VR-enabled tour stops using any VR-capable device, such as a smartphone or tablet.

Available Virtual Reality Tours:

Please check back soon for more virtual tours, coming Spring 2021. In the meantime, you may also be interested to see the 3D representations of petroglyph panels we've made available on our Sketchfab page.

If you've gone through the virtual tours above and still can't get enough, we recommend watching The Archaeological Conservancy's virtual tour of the Wells Petroglyph Preserve, available both as a 4-part mini-series and as a feature-length documentary!

These virtual experiences (and more to come) are made possible by the generous support of the ​National Endowment for the Humanities and by the New Mexico Humanities Council.
