Flagstaff

---

Flagstaff's combination of altitude, low humidity and terrain provide mild weather conditions and clear air throughout the year. At 7,000 feet (2,121 m) elevation, located in a refreshing and green ponderosa pine forest, Flagstaff is considered a high desert region. However, ecosystems spanning from pinon-juniper studded plateaus, high desert, green alpine forest and barren tundra can all be found within Flagstaff.

Cool summers, spring flowers, fall colors and great skiing. Not what you expected. Whether you're looking for an easy, two-day getaway or the vacation of a lifetime, Flagstaff will make any trip a northern Arizona adventure.

With more than two hundred restaurants, dozens of inns, plenty of affordable accommodations, unique attractions, and colorful night spots, our small-town charm will give you big-town excitement. Culture and clean air, festivals and forest paths, Flagstaff is year-round enjoyment.

Some of the most beautiful country in the Southwest surrounds you here, from lush woodlands to rugged deserts. The Grand Canyon, Oak Creek Canyon, Sedona's red rocks, Native American reservations, and a string of breathtaking national monuments are all within a short drive. At the heart of all this is Flagstaff. Its charm, character and distinctive appeal are just a few of the reasons that people rave, "they don't make towns like this anymore!"
