A charming, walkable area centred along the old Santa Fe railway tracks and legendary Route 66. Featuring beautifully preserved early‑1900s brick and sandstone buildings—like the Tudor‑style train depot and Spanish‑Colonial Hotel Monte Vista—it’s now home to quirky shops, art galleries, local breweries, and diverse eateries.

Spend time at the observatory during a daytime visit to explore its most unique telescopes. Flagstaff’s status as a dark‑sky city and high elevation offer breathtaking night skies. For an even more spectacular experience, shift your tour into the evening—with a later start to possibly catch views of Saturn, Jupiter, or other celestial wonders, depending on the time of year.

Visit the stunning Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument, a protected area featuring a unique cinder cone within the San Francisco Volcanic Field. Learn about the monument's fascinating history, including its preservation after a public outcry saved it from potential destruction in the 1920s. Take a self-guided loop trail around the base of the volcano and explore the visitor centre to discover more about this natural wonder.

The Museum of Northern Arizona sits at the base of the San Francisco Peaks—on lands sacred to Native American peoples across the region. We honour their past, present, and future generations, who have lived here for millennia and will forever call this place home. The museum offers a vast collection of artefacts and extensive information about this area.
