Description
About 35 miles south of Chinle is the town of Ganado where you can visit the Hubbell Trading Post, a National Historic Site. John Lorenzo Hubbell established the trading post in the 1870’s. It has been an active part of the Navajo Community ever since. They ‘trade’ everything from penny candy to saddles. It is a good place to examine Navajo rugs. You can tour the original house. A small visitors center often features local Navajo women weaving.
