<strong>Valley</strong> on foot, bike, or horseback, and keep<br />
your eyes peeled for birds, wildlife, and the<br />
perfect shot to share with friends and family<br />
back home.<br />
Discover the many dining options from smoked<br />
BBQ, fresh-made pasta, and hearty homecooked<br />
meals to rich desserts and locally<br />
made chocolate, and the perfectly paired<br />
wine or brew to wash it down with. Rest easy<br />
and dream of more days in <strong>Cottonwood</strong> and<br />
the <strong>Verde</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> at one of many hotels, bed &<br />
breakfasts, campgrounds, RV sites, and more.<br />

boatable with canoes and kayaks for more than<br />
130 of those miles year-round.<br />
u The trees and plants along the <strong>Verde</strong> River form<br />
the “Frémont cottonwood and Goodding<br />

threatened forest types in the U.S. Less than<br />
3<strong>25</strong>,000 acres remain anywhere in the world.<br />

Wagon Road and, is named after a lime kiln used in the<br />
late 1800s to heat limestone to separate and recover the<br />
lime – used in mortar for construction. The Lime Kiln Trail<br />

stunning views of the surrounding landscape, including<br />
red rock formations and the <strong>Verde</strong> River. The trailhead<br />
is located off Dead Horse Ranch Road. The trail starts<br />
relatively gentle and becomes more technical as you<br />
move out of Dead Horse Ranch State Park and into the<br />
desert country where mountain bikers can pick up the<br />
pace as the trail provides a clear line of sight through the<br />
slightly rocky and sparsely vegetated landscape.<br />

The <strong>Verde</strong> River is home to over 200 migratory<br />
and resident bird species, making it one of the<br />
most diverse and productive birding locations in<br />
the US.<br />
The <strong>Verde</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> boasts several Audubon Important<br />
Birding Areas (IBAs) such as Lower Oak Creek, Tuzigoot,<br />
and Camp <strong>Verde</strong>. These IBAs are located near water and<br />
attract nesting birds and migratory species that stop in<br />
the <strong>Valley</strong> during their seasonal journeys. Spring is the<br />
peak season for birding, but bird enthusiasts can still<br />
spot a variety of birds throughout the year in the area’s<br />
canyons, grasslands, and elevations. Whether walking<br />
a path, meandering along the riverbank, or hiking up a<br />
canyon, birdwatchers are sure to catch a glimpse of the<br />
resident or visiting birds. verderiver.org/get-involved/<br />

the most beautiful place in America.<br />
The <strong>Verde</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> Wine Trail invites wine<br />
enthusiasts to experience a destination rich in<br />
history, beauty, and the production of exquisite<br />

Small Towns<br />
The small towns of the <strong>Verde</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> showcase the best of Arizona’s quaint communities. All are within<br />
a 30-mile radius with an estimated population of 66,000 - each offering visitors a unique experience.<br />
In the shadows of Mingus Mountain and in the heart of<br />
the <strong>Verde</strong> <strong>Valley</strong>, <strong>Cottonwood</strong> offers a distinctive historic<br />
district lined with shops, art galleries, restaurants, and<br />
tasting rooms on its Main Street.<br />
History is alive in nearby Clarkdale, whose homes and<br />
buildings still reflect its early copper smelting heritage.<br />
Four specialized museums focus on Native American<br />
cultures, international copper art, the local railroad, and<br />
town history.<br />
Cornville/Page Springs offers wineries, tasting rooms,<br />
and a few wonderful dining options. This area provides<br />
a relaxed take on some of Arizona’s most pristine highdesert<br />
scenery.<br />
<strong>Cottonwood</strong><br />
Camp <strong>Verde</strong>, located in the geographic center of Arizona,<br />
is rich in history and offers a variety of recreation and<br />
outdoor activities to experience and enjoy.<br />
A <strong>Verde</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> excursion wouldn’t be complete without<br />
a journey up the hill to Jerome, the “City in the Sky.”<br />
Once a thriving mining camp of 15,000, Jerome acquired<br />
“ghost town” status by the 1960s. Today, entrepreneurs<br />
have restored many of the quaint buildings that cling<br />
to the mountainside and the town now dishes out artsy<br />
boutiques and panoramic views in equal measure.<br />
Jerome<br />
Cornville<br />
Speaking of views, Sedona’s stark, giant, red rock<br />
formations are so compelling, they cause grown<br />
men to take up painting or poetry. Toss in dozens of<br />
superb shops, galleries, restaurants, and recreational<br />
opportunities, and Sedona has found a magical elixir.<br />
Lake Montezuma/Rimrock & Beaver Creek<br />
Lake Montezuma/Rimrock is one of the smallest towns in the <strong>Verde</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> but, the area offers big attractions for<br />
outdoor enthusiasts and aspiring archaeologists alike! Located 6 miles north of Camp <strong>Verde</strong>, off Interstate 17.<br />
Visit Montezuma Castle and Montezuma Well National Monuments and the The Crane Petroglyph Heritage Site<br />
– the largest known petroglyph site in the <strong>Verde</strong> <strong>Valley</strong>. Fish, play in the creek or birdwatch in Wet Beaver Creek<br />
(access at Sycamore Community Park).<br />

Jerome<br />
The city in the sky<br />
Jerome was at one time the most talked about<br />
Wild West mining camp in America - it’s now<br />
listed on the National Historic Register.<br />
Its population went from 15,000 in its heyday to a “ghost<br />
town” of under 50 people, to its role today as a center<br />
for the arts with unique shops, sophisticated galleries,<br />
wineries, tasting rooms, bistros, hotels and B&Bs -<br />
with just under 500 permanent residents. Jerome’s<br />
scenic view of the entire <strong>Verde</strong> <strong>Valley</strong> offers wonderful<br />
photographic opportunities.<br />
DINE<br />
Whether you’re in the mood for steak, Mexican fare,<br />
a burger, BBQ, or breakfast, Jerome’s mostly quirky<br />
restaurants will make your stomach smile. For instance, in<br />
a hospital-turned-hotel (Jerome Grand Hotel), the upscale<br />
Asylum Restaurant pairs American & Southwestern<br />
fare with scenic views. Or, located in Arizona’s oldest<br />
operating restaurant building (the English Kitchen, 1899),<br />
Bobby D’s BBQ serves up slow-smoked entrees and fresh<br />
salads that you’ll likely enjoy as much as the atmosphere.<br />
SHOP<br />
The boutiques and galleries in Jerome have many unique<br />
items, and with the local artists who inhabit the town,<br />
you are sure to find artwork and crafts to take home.<br />
