Ya'at'eeh
My name is Lupita McClanahan and my family has lived in Tse’gi (Rock Canyon) at Canyon De Chelly National Monument for as long as there have been stories. I offer hiking, camping, and cultural immersion tours through my business Footpath Journeys.
Dine’ (Navajo) culture teaches that we must walk in beauty. Footpath Journeys is my way of sharing the beauty of the canyon, our traditions, and our stories with you.
Lupita's Story
Lupita McClanahan grew up in the canyon and then worked for years as a Park Service Ranger. She has dedicated her life to building a bridge between the modern world, and traditional Dine' culture. Through Footpath Journeys, watch how she brings people like you into the canyon to have an immersive cultural experience, while also re-educating the next generation of Dine’ peoples in their culture.
Camp and Hike in the Canyon
We offer both day hikes and full cultural immersion experiences. We are currently booking day hike reservations for dates after August 16th. We are sold out for the remainder of the spring.
