Flagstaff Flagstaff Arizona’s location amongst the ponderosa pines near the Coconino National Forest, a mere 90 minutes from the Grand Canyon, makes it the perfect base-of-operations for anyone who wants to explore Arizona’s wild and wonderful outdoors.

The Wapaki National Monuments Ancestral Puebloan villages number in the hundreds, but only handful are easily accessible.

The Museum of Northern Arizona not only has great exhibits, like the Hopi Kiva, but provides a host of outdoor adventures as well. Guided tours include backpacking, river rafting and kayaking.

Flagstaff is the home of Northern Arizona University.

Bushmaster Park in Flagstaff is a good place to take the family for an afternoon, thanks to its playgrounds and picnicking areas, tennis and basketball courts and top-notch skate-park.
