Arizona High Country Trip Planner

Welcome to Arizona High Country!

The Arizona High Country stands in contrast to the rest of the state, offering a unique set of attractions that cannot be found in the desert regions. Holbrook is one of the High Country's larger cities, providing lodging, restaurants and more for visitors to enjoy. Known as the gateway to the Petrified Forest National Park, Holbrook has defined itself in the terms of the wild west, with many nearby attractions recalling the pioneer era. A walking tour of Holbrook is available for visitors to enjoy, and features a number of sites that speak to the city's rich history. Another of the draws to this part of the state is historic Route 66, a highway that is celebrated in film and song and has become enmeshed in American folk lore. Show Low is a popular destination in the High Country as well, located equidistant from Phoenix and Tucson and known as the commercial hub of the White Mountains.
