At 26 miles away and at an elevation of 6,000 feet, Lyman Lake State Park is one of the best ways to beat the Arizona heat with summer days hovering in the 80’s and 1,500 acres of water to jump into. The behemoth lake can be experienced along shoreline trails where petroglyphs grace the rocks and jackrabbits scurry through the wildflowers. But let’s be real, you came to get wet! There’s plenty of splish splashing to be had; jet skis, speed boats, canoes, and kayakers all share these waters. There’s no better way to take to the lake than skimming the surface on an innertube. Anglers can enjoy the quiet west end of Lyman, word is the walleye and bass hang here in the no wake zone.
44 miles away you have Gila National Forest. Trying to truly get away from it all?
We are 3.3 million acres of national forest, with just over 700,000 acres of that being designated wilderness areas. The nearest town,
Silver City, has a population of about 10,000.
Gila's remoteness makes it an especially popular spot for stargazing. Amateur astronomers like to journey out to Gila's 3.5-acre Cosmic Campground.
This Dark Sky Sanctuary features unobstructed, awe-inspiring 360-degree views of the heavens. There are minimal amenities here, but they
include telescope pads – made of concrete so that you can setup your
own telescopes for casual or focused study. You'll never think of space in quite the same way after seeing it from here!
Pets are allowed. Please make sure you pick up after them. ON leash, please.
