The staff and volunteers at Agate Fossil Beds NM had the challenge of a lifetime--having the whole world descend on them for the solar eclipse--and they handled it beautifully. They were super organized, friendly, guided everybody into place, provided absolutely everything we needed, and allowed us to concentrate on the spectacular sky show. And the monument itself was gorgeous and fascinating, when we weren't staring at the heavens! Most highly recommended!

Went here for the Great American Eclipse viewing. What a great place! The staff ran the event and managed the crowd and event wonderfully. The park was clean, well organized and full of interesting fossil/geological information about the area and the site itself. I hope that all of our National Monuments offer the service and cleanliness of this park. It is worth the time is visit this place. We had a fantastic experience here.

Came for the eclipse, but I will be back to enjoy and explore the grounds. The staff there did a fantastic job on 8/21/17 handling the throngs of people and they were very welcoming and pleasant. Great job National Park Service and thanks to all of the volunteers from Northwest Nebraska!

Awesome exhibits of Miocene Epoch mammal fossils and an amazing Native American artifact collection.

We saw the Great American Solar Eclipse there and it was awesome. They were very well prepared to direct all the traffic, get everyone parked, and they even had tons of safe eclipse glasses for everyone that needed them. Awesome staff and beautiful area. We didn't do a lot of hiking there. I don't think they have really long trails.
