THE DESTINATION FOR ALL SEASONS
Located in the high country mountains of northern Arizona, Flagstaff is not the Arizona experience you may expect.

The Flagstaff area got its start in 1876 with a pioneer legacy that centers on ranching, lumber mills and the railroad. Many of the buildings in Flagstaff’s historic downtown area date to the early 1900’s and are used today as stores, galleries, hotels and restaurants.
