The 3,300 foot elevation ensures milder temperatures that are ideal for camping, mountain biking in the Coconino National Forest, hiking along the Verde River, canoeing, and fishing. The park is 1 hour and 45 minutes north of Phoenix and 1 hour south of Flagstaff.<a href=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PLANNED ACTIVITIES<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: We are exploring having a wine tasting provided by a local winery at our campsite.
