About Navajo, Arizona: A Quiet Stop in the High Desert
Navajo is a small community in Apache County located along the historic 1926-1985 alignment of Route 66. Situated at 35°07'29.1"N 109°32'06.4"W, this spot marks a tranquil stretch of the Mother Road surrounded by sweeping high-desert vistas within the Navajo Nation.
Taking its name directly from the people who shaped the land, Navajo served as a modest service point for early-to-mid 20th-century travelers, offering basic supplies and a glimpse into the region's rich cultural heritage. Though many of the original roadside businesses have faded into history, the area's remaining trading posts still showcase authentic Navajo craftsmanship, including handwoven blankets and intricate silver and turquoise jewelry.
While larger neighboring towns eventually drew more traffic, Navajo retained its own distinct character, defined by its quiet atmosphere and deep connection to the land. Today, it remains a place where Route 66 explorers can pull over, breathe in the authentic desert air, and experience the wide-open beauty of the Navajo Nation without the bustle of larger attractions.
Navajo may not boast neon motels or sprawling tourist complexes, but its charm lies in its simplicity and authenticity—a powerful reminder that Route 66 is completed by these quiet moments and small communities that ground the story of America's most famous highway.
