Designated by Arizona’s Governor Doug Ducey, Flagstaff is Arizona’s official Winter Wonderland which is no surprise as the city’s downtown receives an annual average of 100” of snow. This, coupled with Flagstaff being home to the state’s tallest mountain, Humphreys Peak, makes this college town ideal for winter recreation.
Flagstaff offers thrill seeking downhill skiers and boarders, from beginner to advanced, terrain at an altitude of 11,500’ which can also provide distant views of the Grand Canyon. Throughout town, more fluffy white adventures await with snow tubing, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Discover the local events you can visit in this Winter Wonderland, from chocolate walks to pub crawls.
