Flagstaff Travel Tips

  • Bring warm clothes, especially in winter. It may be Arizona, but Flagstaff sits at 7,000 feet and sees temperatures in the teens and 20s on winter nights.
  • Hook up with one of the Museum of Northern Arizona's many outdoor recreation programs. Scientists, writers, and guides lead tours ranging from backpacking to river rafting.
  • Rope up and tackle the excellent climbing at Paradise Forks, about 25 miles outside of town. Basalt columns and splinter cracks form deep canyons, with climbs ranging from easy to insane (the 5.13-rated Equalizer is a challenge for even the best rock monkey).
  • Fly direct to Flagstaff aboard Horizon Air to Pulliam Airport and you'll avoid having to make the hot, boring two-hour drive from Phoenix.

Flagstaff Travel Guide

With its wide variety of accommodations and restaurants, the great outdoors at the edge of town, three national monuments nearby, one of the state's finest museums, and a university that supports a lively cultural community, Flagstaff makes an ideal base for exploring much of northern Arizona.
