The second stop during our May 2015 visit to Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument was at the visitor center. The visitor center is located about 2 miles east of US 89 on Sunset Crater - Wupatki Loop Road. The visitor center houses an information desk and fee station, bookstore, restrooms and a one-bench theater. An excellent 20 minute video At the Edge of the Volcano plays continuously.

An entry fee of $5 per person (16 and over) is collected at the visitor center and is good for seven consecutive days at all three Flagstaff area National Monuments. Other fee payment options include the Flagstaff Area National Monuments Annual Pass for $25, the America the Beautiful - National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands passes including the Annual Pass ($80), Senior Pass ($10 for lifetime), Access Pass (free with documented disability) and Military Annual Pass (free for active duty personnel).
